In order to comply with social distancing guidelines and to help combat the spread of coronavirus, there will be no community iftar or Taraweeh Salah during Ramadan this year and the Masjid will remain closed. We encourage you to plan for iftar with your family at your home. We pray that Allah keeps everyone in His Protection and May He enable us to use this time to increase His remembrance at our houses inshaAllah.

Our Imam's have developed programming for you to practice at home with your family.  InshaAllah weekly Zoom/Online classes will be available.  To stay current with all of our activities, please join our WhatsApp group by clicking this link.
