Eid Al Fitr Announcement

[And (He desires) that you should complete the prescribed period and that you should glorify Allah for having guided you and that you may give thanks.] (Al-Baqarah 2:185).

Following the Fiqh Council of North America, Wednesday, April 10th marks the first day of Eid Al Fitr. On behalf of ISCV, we would like to wish each of you and your families a joyous and blessed Eid Al Fitr. 

Eid Prayers on Wednesday, April 10th

Eid prayers will take place at the Ting Pavilion. Eid Takbiraat start @7:15 AM, and prayers start @7:30 AM. Please bring your own mats and chairs.

Eid Celebration Potluck on Saturday, April 13th 

The Eid Celebration Potluck will be held at Forest Hills Park (the park right next to the Masjid). Please bring foods and desserts of your liking to share with the community. There will be several activities for children like a moon bounce and the water park.

Finally, this is a kind reminder to pay Zakatul Fitr before Eid prayers (12$ per person). 
 

Volunteers Tribute 

Finally, the ISCV Board would like to thank each and everyone who helped shape the Ramadan experience at ISCV. This includes: (1) the imams who led the Tarawih prayers, (2) the communities that hosted the weekly Iftaars, (3) the volunteers who helped during the Iftaars and Fundraiser, (4) the volunteers who presented their beautiful mid-Tarawih Khaatiras, and last but definitely not least, (5) the team that served the above and beyond Suhoors in the Last 10 Nights and keeps the masjid spotless all year-round. May Allah bless them, their families, and accept their efforts solely for His Sake. May Allah preserve the unity and harmony in our community.

We ask that Allah accepts our fasting, duaa, and acts of worship during the blessed month of Ramadan. We ask that Allah brings joy and peace into the hearts of those who had no food or water to break their fasts on during Ramadan. We ask that Allah uplifts the Ummah and alleviates its sorrows and hardships.
