We issue this statement in relation to the drive by shooting that occurred two nights ago after evening prayers.

Please do note that we do not have reason to believe this was a hate crime at this point. We're working with 43 division and hopeful that TPS will put adequate resources to investigate this shooting. We believe it's absolutely essential the suspect(s) be apprehended before we can begin to heal as a community. We're requesting anyone with information to please contact Toronto Police or reachout to Crime Stoppers anonymously. We're grateful to 43 division, local politicians, and the media for their support. Thank you.

*MASJID OPENING WITH FULL CAPACITY*

Assalamualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Alhamdulillah, we are pleased to announce that effective tomorrow Monday October 25th, Jame Abu Bakr Siddique will reopen with full capacity. As we return to operating the Masjid with full capacity, the following rules will be implemented, as per guidelines by the Ontario Government:

1) Vaccinated musallees will be allowed to pray side by side with masks on. Proof of vaccinations will be required.
2) A separate praying area will be designated for individuals who are not vaccinated. They will be required to maintain social distancing while wearing masks.

Alhamdulillah, this is a great mercy of Allah Subhanahu wa'tala that we are once again opening the Masjid with full capacity for the first time since the beginning of the COVID-19 Pandemic. In the recent past, we have noticed many previously regular musallees have become accustomed to praying at home. With the Masjid open with full capacity and the majority of our community being fully vaccinated, we strongly encourage our community to attend the Masjid and pray Salah in congregation. We hope to see you at the Masjid!

Assalamualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

The Hilal Council of Canada has received credible reports of moonsighting. *Thus, the first day of Ramadhan will be TOMORROW on Tuesday, April 13, 2021.* The first *night of taraweeh Salah will be Monday, April 12, 2021 (tonight).* May Allah Subhanahu wa'tala remove this pandemic, and bless us with the full opening of our Masjid very soon.

As things stand, due to COVID-19, Masjid will be open in very limited capacity for taraweeh Salah. We continue to strongly encourage our community to take all the safety precautions put in place by the Government. We strongly advise our congregants to please be considerate of the safety of your family and the community, and pray your taraweeh Salah at home with the huffaz in your family. JazakumAllahu khair.
