SPECIAL EID AL-FITR PROGRAM
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Salam Alaykum,
We are delighted to announce that Wednesday, April 10th, 2024 will be the first day of the month of Shawwal, 1445, and Eid al-Fitr.
This determination is based on the fact that there were verified sightings of the crescent moon by the naked eye at sunset on Tuesday, April 9th, 2024 in different regions of North America.
Masjid Al-Rasool Congratulates you and all the Mo'mineen on the blessed occasion of Eid Al-Fitr. We are thankful to have had the opportunity to welcome you again at the Masjid during this holy month of Ramadan. In the spirit of unity, we bid farewell to this blessed month and bring you a special program to celebrate the arrival of Eid al-Fitr and reflect upon the spiritual revival brought to us by the month of Ramadan.
You are cordially invited to join us for the Eid prayer. The program will consist of the following:
7:00 AM: Masjid doors open
7:30 AM Dua Nudba and Takbeerat
8:00 AM Eid Prayer
8:30 AM Eid Sermon
9:00 AM Breakfast
10:00 AM Game & Prizes

We have coordinated for you all to park at Simi Community Church: 2000 Royal Ave, Simi Valley, CA 93065.
Please park there and walk to the Masjid Al-Rasool (s).

ZAK****T FITRAH
Zakat al-Fitrah should be set aside on the eve of Eid al-Fitr and paid on the day itself, which marks the end of Ramadan and the first day of the month of Shawwal. Since there will be in-person Eid Prayer, you can pay your Zakat at the Masjid or pay it online so we can get the funds to the Faqeer (needy) in time for Eid. A sum must be paid on a persons behalf as well as on behalf of all of the dependents. This would also include any guests who are staying overnight during the eve of Eid al-Fitr, under the care of the person. For further details, please refer your Marja's rulings or this reference: http://www.islamic-laws.com/fitra.htm
For every individual, the minimum given must be the equivalent of 6.6 pounds of a popular basic food commodity such as rice or wheat (flour), as opposed to a full cooked meal. For 2024, the estimated cost per person for Zakat-al-Fitra is $15. On the day of Eid, the zakat will be distributed to the poor.
You can give Zakt al-Fitra any time during the month of Ramadan before the night of Eid but its mustahab to first give it as a loan and then to change your intention from it being a "loan" to "Zakt al-Fitra" on the day of Eid..
The amount of Fidya/Kaffarah is 1.65 pounds of popular basic food commodity. The estimated cost per person for Fidya/Kaffrah is $5.00 per day.
You can pay your Zakat al-Fitra and Kaffarh on the day of Eid at the Masjid or use the link below to pay them and other related dues.
Jazakum Allah Khairan
