InshaAllah Friday, April 24th will be the 1st day of fasting. We pray that Allah will accept our fasting and Dua's this Ramadan.

For safety reasons, all Masjid activities will continue to be suspended. Please be sure to check our website and other platforms for virtual programming/learning activities.

Jazakullah Khair!

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.

With the ongoing spread of COVID-19 your health and safety are our priority.  Masjid management is actively monitoring the situation and is taking the appropriate steps to maintain a safe environment for our community.  The Center for Disease Control has issued guidance on what is currently known about the Coronavirus Disease.

There are many steps each for us can take to minimize the risk of spreading germs.  Our management is strongly urging community members to follow the below guidance:

Stay home if you are sick.  
To help prevent further spread, please try to stay home if you are sick, avoid public areas and public transportation.  Also, try to limit contact with others.  Symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath.

Seek medical attention as necessary.
If you develop symptoms, have been in close contact with a person known to have COVID-19 or have traveled from an area with widespread or ongoing community spread, contact your doctor immediately.

Limit non-essential travel or unnecessary mass gatherings.
Please try to limit non-essential travel.  This would include visiting public spaces that could aid in the further spread of the disease.

Wash your hands frequently.
Washing your hands frequently is key to preventing infection or the spread of COVID-19.  We encourage you to sanitize your home, workspace, and other common areas.

Cover your cough or sneeze.
If you are sick and are unable to stay home, please consider using a face mask to prevent further spread. 

Educate yourself.
