Emergency Relief
We hope this message finds you well. In our ongoing efforts to improve the parking situation at ICNEF, we would like to inform you of a temporary change in parking arrangements.
Tomorrow, the community will be required to park at the mass clinic, as construction work is underway in the parking area adjacent to the school building. This temporary adjustment is necessary to ensure the safety of everyone in the community and facilitate the construction process.
We understand that this may cause some inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this period. The construction work is aimed at enhancing the overall facilities at ICNEF, and we believe the end result will greatly benefit the entire community.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the temporary parking arrangement, please feel free to reach out for assistance.
Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we work to improve our community facilities.
Message from Imam
Peace, blessings and mercy of Allah be upon you.
Dear Community members,
Happy New Year (2024)
Today is Thursday, the 4th of January, year 2024 AD, after the birth of Prophet Isa/ Jesus, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, upon all the prophets and especially upon our last Prophet Muhammad
New year resolutions:
As a believer, we are required to properly plan for our day, week, month and our coming year, in the whole planning for our future life,
Quran emphasising on it:
" ..." ( : ).
Oh believers, have piety, and every person must see what he has done (as his planning) for tomorrow
So as a true believer, I need to manage my time and properly plan for my better tomorrow
Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, taught us to make sure that our each (passing) day and night is fruitful
Starting each day and each night:
He used to start his each day and even each night with so many prayers, one of them:
" ".
We woke up alive in this morning, while all the kingdom/ powers are in the hands of Allah,
Oh my beloved Allath, I seek all the best (stored for me) in this day, and its all victories, all Your support, all the enlightenment, all the blessings and all the guidance, and I seek Your protection oh Allah from every evil in this day and from all the evil coming later on.
Likewise, he peace be upon him, used to pray at the start of each night
Im going to request you to please pay extra attention on this coming Duaa
It did not skip, any of our needs or necessities
Plus try to memorise this amazing Duaa
Starting the new month:
While, at the start of the new month and looking towards the crescent he used to ask:
" "
Oh Allah, bring this moon (month) upon us with the ultimate blessings and higher faith, with ultimate peace and more submission to You, and grant us the strength to perform, in accordance to what pleases You and up to Your liking.
For the new year:
" " (3 / 543) : : : " : ".
"" (6 / 407 - 408)
The companions used to learn the following prayer as they used to learn Quran, they say, when ever new month or new year is starting:
O our Allah, cover this year upon us, with ultimate faith and prosperity, with ultimate peace and submission (to You), with protection from evil and pleasure of the most Merciful.
Ill end with this amazing saying of Prophet peace be upon him:
If your today was not better than your previous day! If your tomorrow was not better than your today! Then youre leading yourself into disaster
My humble request is:
To please, set up few simple yet major achievable goals for your coming day, for the week, for your month and likewise for the whole year
Try to have a good sensible planning
Set up few major goals, then
Have a check and balance on your achievements of those set up goals
Try your best to achieve them
Dua:
May Allah the most merciful, forgive our all sins, shortcomings wrong doings in the previous year
May Allah let this year be better than the previous one
May Allah the Almighty, remove the sufferings of all oppressed Muslims especially in Ghazzah and all around the world
May Allah bring peace and prosperity to all
Once again,
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024
Have a blessed day,
M.Bilal Malik,
