Ramadan

The start of Ramadan will be announced just before starting the month, following the announcement made by Fiqh Council of North America. The announcement will appear here and on the Home Page.

Assalamu Alaykum Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Ramadan Mubarak!

Following the Fiqh Council of North America, the blessed month of Ramadan will start after sunset on the evening of Thursday, April 23, 2020 Insha’Allah. The first day of fasting will be FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 2020, Insha’Allah.

As Allah says in the Holy Qur’an, Surah 2 (al-Baqarah) ayat 183, “O you who believe, fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that you may achieve taqwa (nearness to Allah).” Please note that humility and complete submission before Allah is a requirement for achieving the goal of Ramadan. Our dedication to the cause of Allah is especially tested during these difficult times. Your generous donations for our masjid during this month will be multiplied several fold.

As stated in a previous announcement, due to the coronavirus outbreak and social distancing requirements mandated by our governor to contain the spread of COVID-19, the Faith Unity Center will remain closed during Ramadan till further notice.

The salat timings during this month are available from our website at www.Faith-Unity.org. It is attached for your convenience.

We rely on your continued support for running our Center. Also, we are now very close to obtaining final approval of our land development plan for starting work, for which we need your financial assistance. Your donations during this month of blessings (Ramadan) are particularly appreciated. Please note that after Phase I of our land development, the construction of the masjid will be the next phase. As per Shariah, Zakat contributions can be made to those areas of the Islamic Center that are not exclusively reserved for worship alone, such as education.  

At this time donations to Faith Unity Islamic Center are only accepted through check or PayPal as per instructions on our website www.faith-unity.org.
