Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Assalamu Alaikum,

As we announced earlier, starting from Monday, April 12, admission to Isha and Taraweeh prayers at the mosque will require online daily pre-registration.

The first daily registration link will be posted at MANAL Website at 6:00 AM this Monday morning. If you wish to attend Isha + Taraweeh this Monday, we advise that you register as soon as the link is posted.

Under the current Alert Level 2, a maximum of 50 people in total will be able to attend each night, including 40 brothers and 10 sisters.

Please kindly remember that you can register and attend the mosque ONLY IF:

• you are older than 12 years of age
• you do not have any Covid 19 symptoms
• you have not recently been outside of the province
• you are not required to self isolate by public health authorities

When coming to the mosque, please make sure to bring your own face mask and prayer mat with you. If you forget your face mask and/or prayer mat, you will be required to purchase from MANAL's back up supplies by making a monetary donation at the main entrance.

Also, please note that Zakat-ul Fitr is $20 per person and you are encouraged to pay it at your earliest convenience.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahu Wa Barakatuhu.

We pray that you and your families are all doing well and being safe during these challenging times.

Alhamdulillah, we are about to experience the Holy Month of Ramadan. We pray to Allah (swt) to help us all to build a strong taqwa during this holy month and to be able to sustain it for the rest of our lives.

Please kindly note the following updates about MANAL's ongoing Ramadan and Taraweeh planning:

• Insha'Allah, the first day of Ramadan will be on Tuesday, April13th and the first Taraweeh will be on Monday, April 12th.

• Ramadan timetable is attached herewith for your information. It is posted at this website for your convenience.

• Under Alert Level 2, we will insha'Allah have in person Isha + Taraweeh prayers at Masjid Al Noor. The maximum capacity will be 50 people in total (40 brothers + 10 sisters) and admission will be subject to daily online pre-registration.

• Every morning, we will post a new registration link at this website for those who want to pray Isha AND Taraweeh on that day.

• Once you register for your day of choice, you will be required to arrive at the mosque shortly before Isha Iqama time and leave as soon as the Taraweeh is over.

• Due to ongoing public health restrictions, it will not be allowed to consume or share any food and drink at mosque premises. You can only bring your own personal water bottle making sure that you do not share it with others and take it with you as you leave the mosque. It is extremely important that you don't leave any trash behind so that our volunteers can quickly clean and sanitize the mosque for the next day.

• For those who cannot attend Isha and Taraweeh in person, there will be daily live streaming from this website.

• During Ramadan, we also plan to organize a series of online webinars with distinguished guest speakers. A detailed program will insha'Allah be shared soon. 

We wish you and your families Ramadan Kareem. Please stay tuned and check this website for updates.

Jazakumullahu Khairan,

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahu Wa Barakatuhu,

Alhamdulillah, Avalon Peninsula, including St. John's, is now in Alert Level 4.

Until further notice, Masjid Al Noor will remain closed for daily prayers to minimize the risk for our congregation.

However, as of Friday, March 19th, we will insha'Allah reopen for Jumah and will have two Jumah sessions.

As per public health restrictions, the maximum capacity for each Jumah session will be 10 PEOPLE ONLY.

Due to limited capacity, only brothers will be welcome for Jumah under the current Alert level.

Jumah registration links will insha'Allah be posted at MANAL website at 8 am on Wednesday, March 17th.

Please remember that you can register for Jumah only if you are older then 12 years old and if you are healthy without any Covid 19 symptoms. Also, you cannot register or attend if you are self isolating due to travel history or any other public health restriction.

Only those, who are successfully registered and received a registration confirmation email, will be admitted to Jumah prayers.

Please do not come to the mosque for Jumah without registration confirmation or if you develop any symptoms after registering.

Jazakumullahu Khairan,
