Assalamu Alaikum Dear Brothers and Sisters,

May this email find you in the best of health and iman (faith). These are moments of immense spiritual significance, a time when the mercy and blessings of Allah (SWT) are abundant, and the rewards for our deeds are multiplied manifold.

In our weekly newsletter, we are delighted to share with you the latest updates and opportunities within our beloved North Austin Muslim Community Center, tailored especially for these sacred days. 

Muharram is one of the four sacred months in Islam, known as "the month of Allah." It holds special significance due to the Day of Ashura, which falls on the 10th of Muharram. Historically, fasting on Ashura was obligatory before the fast of Ramadan was mandated, and it remains a highly recommended act of worship. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the virtue of fasting in Muharram, second only to Ramadan. This month encourages increased acts of worship, charity, and kindness, offering an opportunity for spiritual growth and seeking closeness to Allah.

Let us make the most of this blessed month, seeking closeness to Allah through acts of worship, charity, and kindness towards others. May this month be a source of spiritual growth, blessings, and peace for all of us and our families.

Wishing you and your loved ones a blessed and prosperous Muharram.
