Eid Salat Info
Assalaamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dhul Hijjah 8, 1446 H
"Giving away something in charity does not cause any decrease in a person's wealth, but increases it instead. The person who adopts humility for the sake of Allah is exalted in ranks by Him". (Muslim)
Eid Salat Details
Significance of the Day of Arafaat
Abu Qatadah al-Ansari (r.a.) relates that Rasulullah (s.a.w.) was asked about the saum (fast) on the day of Arafaat (9th Zhul Hijjah). He said, "It compensates for the minor sins of the past year and the coming year." (MUSLIM)
Yaumul Arafah (Dhul Hijjah 9th, 1446) will be on Thursday, June 5th, 2025, Insha Allah.
Let us not miss this opportunity to gain the forgiveness of Allah by fasting on Thursday [June 5th 2025].
Udhiyah Locations
Zayd lbn Arqam Radhiyallaahu Anhu relates that the Companions Radhiyallaahu Anhum queried, O Rasoolullah Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam, What is Qurbani? He replied, It is the Sunnah of your father lbraheem Alayhis Salaam. They again asked, What benefit do we derive from it? He answered, A reward for every hair (of the sacrificed animal). And (what reward is there for animals with) wool, O Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)? they asked. A reward, he said, for every fibre of the wool. (Ibne Majah)
**Do not miss this excellent oppurtunity to gain rewards by performing Udhiyah for the sake of Allah and know that it is Wajib (Obligatory) on every adult muslim who has money more than the nisab during these days of sacrifice to perform Udhiyah.
If you are looking for a place to perform Udhiyah, please contact ICR representative and they will be able to guide you.**
Distribution of the meat to the Needy
If you wish to donate the Udhiyah meat to the needy in the community and don't know where to donate, ICR is there to help you. ICR, every year, facilitates the process of distribution of the udhiyah meat to the needy.
Please donate the udhiyah meat at Masjid Yusuf for distribution to the needy.
Takbeer of Tashreek
Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar. Laa ilaaha illallaahu wallaahu Akbar. Allaahu Akbar walillaahil hamd
Translation: "Allah is most great. Allah is most great. There is no Deity besides Allah and Allah is most Great. Allah is most Great and Verily all praises are for Allah."
It is waajib to recite this Takbeer audibly once after every Fard salah from the morning of the ninth of Dhul Hijjah (Day of Arafah) till the Asr salah of the thirteenth of Dhul Hijjah. The ruling is that the one that performs salah with Jamaa'ah/ congregation, and the one that performs it alone are the same as far as this law is concerned i.e. it is necessary to recite the Takbeer. It is waajib on both male and female. Females should not say the Takbeeraat loudly but softly. It is Mustahab (desirable) for those who pray their salah individually (men or women) and Musafirs (travellers) to recite the Takbeeraat softly.
