As we prepare to welcome the blessed month of Ramadan, we look forward to a time of spiritual growth, heartfelt worship, and strong community bonds at SALAM.

Shaykh Saad ElHelaly and Shaykh Achour El-Qaddoury will lead our Taraweeh prayers in both Hafs and Warsh qiraat, offering a unique opportunity to experience the beauty of diverse Quranic recitations. They will also guide various Ramadan programs, bringing wisdom and insight to our spiritual journey.

We are pleased to welcome Imam Muhammed Elmarouk as a Visiting Imam this Ramadan.

Imam Muhammed will deliver daily themed reflections during Taraweeh, special lectures, youth Qiyam sessions, and other engagements, enhancing our spiritual journey throughout the month of Ramadan.

To prepare for Ramadan, we encourage you to attend the five daily prayers at SALAM. Lets enter this sacred month spiritually grounded and connected.

Oh Allah, let us reach the month of Ramadan.
