New Ishaa Iqamah Time During Ramadan

To provide more time between Iftaar and Ishaa, the time until Ishaa Iqamah has been changed from 5 mins after Adhan to 10 mins after Adhan. This change is effective starting tomorrow until the End of Ramadan. For instance, Ishaa Adhan tomorrow is @8:38 PM, so the Iqamah will be @8:48 PM in sha Allah. The table on the website has been updated to reflect this change as well. 

 

Zakaat Al Fitr 

Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, obligated Zakat al-Fitr as purification of the fasting person from vain talk and misbehavior, as food for the poor. Whoever pays it before the Eid prayer, it is accepted as Zakat. Whoever pays it after the Eid prayer, it is part of voluntary charity.

[Sunan Abi Dawud 1609]

This is a kind reminder to pay Zakaat Al Fitr before Eid Prayers. The value of Zakaat Al Fitr has been determined to be $12/person. To pay Zakaat Al Fitr, kindly use this link.
