Assalamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu Masjid,

Ramadan is in full swing, Alhamdullilah! We are hopeful that fasting during the day and nightly Taraweeh prayers at the Masjid are resulting in our spiritual growth that last beyond this month. Another act of Ibadah that we can engage in during this holy month is Zakat: in a month where Allah has promised us that every good deed will be multiplied many folds over. Al Falah Zakat committee collects zakat and zakat-ul-Fitr for eligible, local people in New Jersey. Al Falah Center is also holding its Fundraising Iftar this weekend. Come support your Masjid and seize the opportunity to increase your rewards!

Conservation

During Ramadan this year, Al Falah Center is pledging to stop plastic waste as much as possible; therefore, we encourage everyone to bring in their own water bottles to the masjid and fill them up at our water fountains and drink stations located outside of our restrooms. Al Falah reusable water bottles will also be available for purchase, inshallah.

Weekly Recap

Last week, Al Falah Center was proud to host MSA's from many local high school around Somerset County. The young boys and girls played games, learned from a halaqa, enjoyed each other's company and delicious Iftar. 

On Sunday, we held a second session of Dr. Ahmed's "a Verse and a Story", where we learned about an incident during the time of the Battle of Tabouk, relating to a Sahabah Ka'ab Ibn Malik (RA). It was an interesting story, with lessons that we can all apply to our lives;  including accepting our fault when we make a mistake, never losing hope in the Mercy and Forgiveness of Allah and that obedience to the Prophet SAWS is obedience to Allah. 

Jazakum'Allahu Khairan thank you for reading about Al Falah Center. See you next week! Assalamu Alaikum.
