Ramadan Mubarak / A Blessed Ramadan to you all!
We hope you're all in good health and taking advantage of the many blessings that this month of light and forgiveness has to offer.
Its hard to believe, but the first week of Ramadan has already passed us by! So with this in mind, we felt it would be a good time to have a check-in with you all to see how everyone is doing and to share our reflections from our first week with one another.
Well reflect, break our fasts, pray our Maghrib / Sunset prayer, and make dua together. Then well join the rest of the community for Isha and Taraweeh prayers!
We hope you will join us, insha Allah!
SPACE IS LIMITED. RSVP IS REQUIRED.
NOTE: Due to limited space and the nature of our discussions, these events are open only to converts, family members of converts, and those who are not Muslim and exploring Islam.
YA RAMADAN!
by Noor Syed
In the name of Allah, the most Merciful, the most Kind
A blessed month is casting its shadow upon us
A night of this month is better than a thousand months
Bear with patience for the sake of Ar-Rahman
It's a continuous training to strengthen our Imaan.
Glory be to Allah who sent Ramadan as a mercy to mankind
Its a purification of our soul, our heart, and our mind
With the most sincere devotion and love we fast
To be cleansed and free from sins of the past
Glorified is He, who choseth this holy month,
To test our sabr and fill our hearts with warmth
Of his Divine Light, His blessings shall glow,
The Seer of the unseen, all He does know
Ya Allah! For thee, let my breath be more pleasant than musk
Ya Allah! For thee, let me be thankful when day turns to dusk
My thoughts and heart are purified, my eyes truly see'
This blessed month, the month of spiritual rhapsody!
Ya Allah! For thee, my life I shall live!
Ya Allah! For thee, my soul I shall give!
In the name of Allah, the most Merciful, the most Kind,
Praise be to Allah, who sent Ramadan as a gift to mankind
