Assalamu Alaykum, and Ramadan Kareem,
On behalf of the board, staff, and volunteers at the ICNEF, we wish you and your family a blessed and joyous Ramadan!

Ramadan is a season of blessings and divine gifts, and we are fortunate to be able to witness it again this year. We encourage you to take advantage of this blessed time and dedicate most of your time to connecting with Allah SubhanahWatala, kalam Allah (Quran), your masjid, and your loved ones.

ICNEF has been putting tremendous effort into preparing it for you to enjoy and make the best out of this month, make sure to express your gratitude and appreciation and offer help in any way you can.

We also invite you to tune in each evening to our Facebook page, to our Ramadan 2024 Series: learn Quran with Imam Bilal, and enjoy recitation of Br Hamza.

I look forward to seeing you during Fajr & Isha prayers, Qiyams, Tarweeh, our daily Ifrar events, Please feel free to share with us any feedback or suggestions to improve the work of the ICNEF to serve its purpose and the Muslim community.

Ramadan is also the season of giving and being generous, our prophet was described as being most generous in Ramadan. We have many opportunities to practice giving to our local centers and to support good causes/programs within our community. Please give generously, please participate in the daily dollar collection during Taraweeh prayers, encourage you child to put that dollar in the bucket, teach them the spirit of giving,

Finally I ask Allah Subhanah Watala to keep people of Gaza/Palestine and Muslims suffering around the world safe and protected, please keep them in your duah, I ask Allah to keep us on the straight path, facilitate us to have a blessed and joyous Ramadan, and accept our devotional acts solely for His sake, Ameen.
