CANCELED: All ADAMS Jummah Prayers, Daily Prayers, and Activities for Jan. 19th

CANCELED: All ADAMS Jummah Prayers, Daily Prayers,
and Activities for Jan. 19th

Dear ADAMS Community - As Salamu Alaikum,

Due to snowy & icy weather conditions in our area, all ADAMS Center branches will be closed for ALL Jummah prayers today (Jan. 19, 2024).

In Islamic jurisprudence, the prevention of harm takes priority over fulfilling an obligation. The Prophet SAW suspended prayers in his masjid during heavy rain. His disciple Abdullah bin Abbas (RA) suspended daily prayers and Juma due to windy and rainy conditions. Abdullah b. Abbas reported that he said to the Muadhdhin on a rainy day: When you have announced I testify that there is no god but Allah; I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, do not say: Come to the prayer, but make this announcement: Say prayer in your houses.

All ADAMS Center locations (Main Center, Branches, and Satellites) will be closed for the remainder of the day. All daily prayers, classes, and activities scheduled for Friday, January 19, 2024, are canceled. It is expected that we will have additional snow today therefore ADAMS Center advises that you stay home.

Please regularly check your email and the ADAMS website () if anything changes.

Wasalamu Alaikum, 

ADAMS Management
