Reflecting on the blessings of Ramadan and our call to servejoin us for what's next.
Shawwal 1446 | April 2025
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Ramadan finished only days ago, yet Allah immediately ushers us into another season of mercythe sacred months that culminate in Hajj. A believers life is a graceful cycle of blessings: we leave one station spiritually replenished only to arrive at the next, carrying fresher faith and deeper resolve. These divine appointments are the charging stations for our souls, preparing us to face lifes tests, refine the best version of ourselves, and bear the torch of da'wah with conviction.

When one part of our Ummah suffers, do we feel the pain? As our brothers and sisters in Gaza continue to face unimaginable hardship, we must not grow numb. Intensify your dua. Raise awareness. Do not become complacent. Do not forget. The parable of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for each other is that of a body. When any limb aches, the whole body reacts with sleeplessness and fever. (Sahih Muslim)
