Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahu Wa Barakatuhu.

On June 6, 2021, we were shaken by the news of a horrific attack in London, Ontario, where the driver of a truck intentionally struck and killed members of a Muslim family taking the lives of a grandmother, a mother, a father and a daughter. The lone survivor of this attack is a young son, who is still coping with the serious injuries he received and the trauma of losing his family.

This Tuesday will mark the two-year commemoration of this Islamophobic terrorist attack. Please join us this Tuesday (June 6), after maghrib prayers (8:55 PM) at Masjid Al Noor, as our volunteer imams will have a Quran recitation and make duaa for the victims and the lone survivor.

As Canadian Muslims, we will always remember our London family and stand against Islamophobia. We will also continue urging all fellow Canadians and politicians to work with us against this increasingly alarming problem with due seriousness and commitment.

Jazakumullahu Khairan,

MANAL Executive Committee

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Assalamu’ Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

It is with a heavy heart that we see the passing of Ramadan, the month of spiritual uplift, mercy and endless blessings, but at the same time we are grateful to Allah (SWT) for enabling us to experience this Ramadan through congregational prayers and hope to experience many more Ramadans in the future.

We would like to share important information with our community as part of Eid celebrations.

For those who have not yet paid, Zakatul Fitr is $20 per person and must be paid BEFORE the Eid prayer. You can pay your Zakatul Fitr through the donation boxes located at the mosque, MANAL on-line donation system or through a member of the MANAL Executive Committee.

Ramadan is a month during which all good deeds, and especially charity, are rewarded more than other times of the year. We encourage all our brothers and sisters to donate generously to the MANAL Fundraising Drive to cover the annual operation and maintenance cost of the Mosque that is about $100,000 and to build a new Islamic Centre to cater to the needs of our growing Muslim population.

Through your donations, you will Insha'Allah leave an ever lasting legacy that will benefit you and your families both in this world and in the hereafter. Allah (SWT) says in the Holy Quran:

لَن تَنَالُواْ الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنفِقُواْ مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ وَمَا تُنفِقُواْ مِن شَيْءٍ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ بِهِ عَلِيمٌ (3:92)

[But as for you, O believers,] never shall you attain true piety unless you spend on others out of what you cherish yourselves; and whatever you spend - verily, God has full knowledge thereof.

The first day of Eid will Insha'Allah be Friday, April 21st.

There will be only one Eid prayer and it will be held at 8:15 AM on Friday (April 21st) at the Techniplex (39 Churchill Avenue, Pleasantville, St. John’s). Please see this map for the location and driving directions. Please note that there will be no Eid prayer at the Mosque.

When you come to the Techniplex for the Eid prayer, please make sure that you bring your own prayer mat and park in the designated parking area only. 

Taking this opportunity, MANAL would like to thank all the volunteers who help us maintain the Mosque and manage MANAL’s operational activities throughout the year and especially during the holy month of Ramadan.

May Allah (SWT) bless our community and the whole Muslim ummah with a happy and peaceful Eid.

Eid Mubarak

Jazakum Allahu Khairun,

MANAL Executive Committee
