Assalamu Alaikum Beloved MCC Family!

MCC will host daily iftars along with community iftars on the weekends. Your favorite thriving masjid needs YOUR help to feed our community!

He who breaks anothers fast earns the same reward as the one who fasted, without diminishing the latters reward in the slightest. - Tirmidhi

Help Us with Ramadan Expenses

This Ramadan, we're bursting with activities! We cannot wait to tell you more!

But to keep up with the many added expenses during the holy month when attendance is more than triple what we see in other months, we humbly ask for your early support to cover added staff, heating/cooling, security, and many more operational expenses.

And, as a small token of our esteem & affection, you will receive a complimentary refillable MCC water bottle to use throughout Ramadan.

Just show your emailed donation receipt to a Board Member, who will be tabling in the foyer after all MCC Jumu'ahs in February.

Ramadan Expenses (Family) - $250.00

Ramadan Expenses (Individual) - $125.00

Alhamdulilah, we're so grateful to everyone in the community who contributes to the vibrancy of MCC East Bay during Ramadan. We are beyond excited to celebrate this beautiful time with you again this year, inshaAllah!

Allahumma sallimnee ilaa Ramadhan, Allahumma sallim lee Ramadhan, wa tasallamhu minnee mutaqabbalaa
