Important Days of Fasting in Muharram 🌙

As we enter the blessed month of Muharram, let us take advantage of these special days of fasting and seek Allah’s mercy and forgiveness.

📅 Fast on:
▫️ 9th Muharram (Day before Ashura)
▫️ 10th Muharram (Day of Ashura)
▫️ 11th Muharram (Day after Ashura)
▫️ White Days: 13th, 14th & 15th Muharram

The Prophet ﷺ said:

"For fasting the day of ‘Ashura’, I hope that Allah will accept it as expiation for the year that went before." (Muslim)

May Allah ﷻ accept our fasting, worship, and good deeds, and allow us to begin the new Islamic year with sincerity and devotion. 🤲

May Allah (SWT) grant us the strength to grow in faith, gratitude, and good deeds throughout the year ahead. Let this new beginning be filled with hope, reflection, and renewed purpose.

Hijri New Year Mubarak!

Saying Goodbye to 1447 AH 🌙

As we close the chapter of 1447, we pause to reflect on a year filled with moments that shaped us, joys and hardships, beginnings and endings, victories and trials.

We witnessed births and farewells, reunions and separations, blessings and tests. We experienced the mercy of Ramadan, the sacred days of Dhul Hijjah, and countless opportunities to grow closer to Allah.

As we step into a new year, let us take a few moments tonight to make sincere du'a, seek forgiveness, express gratitude, and pray for peace, guidance, and relief for our Ummah.

🤲 May Allah accept our deeds, forgive our shortcomings, and bless us with a year filled with barakah, health, and steadfast faith.

In a world that never seems to slow down, sleep is often the first thing we sacrifice. Yet Allah ﷻ reminds us that sleep is one of His signs and blessings, a mercy designed to restore our bodies, calm our minds, and renew our hearts.

The Prophet ﷺ modeled healthy sleep habits through his Sunnah: sleeping early, waking for tahajjud, taking a midday rest, and ending the day with trust in Allah.

This week, challenge yourself to:
✔️ Put screens away 30 minutes before bed
✔️ Make wudu before sleeping
✔️ Recite Ayat al-Kursi and the last three Surahs
✔️ Sleep on your right side
✔️ Reflect on the blessings of your day
✔️ Trust Allah with what remains unfinished

Remember: Rest is not laziness. Rest is part of caring for the body and soul Allah entrusted to you.

💚 If anxiety or sleeplessness is weighing on you, know that you do not have to carry it alone. The We Care Unit is here to listen, support, and help.
