Family Game Night
Recap
Despite the rainy weather, our community came together for an unforgettable evening of joy, games, and fellowship.
Our little ones dazzled everyone with their knowledge and enthusiasm in the Kid's Islamic Trivia, while the adults were not to be outdone, showcasing their Islamic knowledge and competing for some prizes in their own trivia challenge.
The evening was filled with classic fun as Tug of War and Musical Chairs brought out the competitive spirit in everyone, amidst lots of laughter and cheers.
After all the fun and games, we all gathered for a delicious meal, sharing stories and smiles, and enjoying the warmth of our community together.
We're already looking forward to our next gathering! Share your favorite moments from the night in the comments below and stay tuned for more exciting events!

Get Ready for Ramadan
With the month of Ramadan swiftly approaching, it's a time of preparation and spiritual renewal. We invite you to deepen your connection with Allah (SWT) by joining us for all five daily prayers at SALAM, led by Shaykh Saad ElHelaly and Shaykh Achour El-Qaddoury. Experience the profound recitations in both Hafs and Warsh qiraat, immersing yourself in the beauty and diversity of Quranic recitation.
As we count down the days to Ramadan, let's also embrace the Sunnah of fasting during the "White Days" of Rajab and Shaaban. This year, the three white days in Rajab fall on:
- Rajab 13th | Thursday, January 25th, 2024
- Rajab 14th | Friday, January 26th, 2024
- Rajab 15th | Saturday, January 27th, 2024
Fasting on these days is a great opportunity to start getting into the habit of fasting, preparing our bodies and souls for the holy month of Ramadan.
We encourage everyone, whether you're a regular at the mosque or haven't visited in a while, to join us for the daily prayers. Let's come together as a community, strengthen our faith, and prepare our hearts for the blessed month ahead.
May Allah (SWT) accept all our prayers and fasts and allow us to reach Ramadan in good health and strong imaan.
