Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Heart healthy lifestyle habits including regular physical activity, a well-balanced diet, good sleep and managing stress can help control your blood pressures and reduce risk of organ damage and cardiovascular disease.

As we enter this blessed month, we pray that Ramadan brings purification of the heart, clarity of intention, and closeness to Allah.

May our fasting teach us patience.
May our prayers strengthen our faith.
May our charity soften our hearts.
May our du’a be answered.

May Allah accept our siyam, our qiyam, and our good deeds, and grant us forgiveness and mercy in this sacred month.

Wishing you and your families a peaceful and spiritually uplifting Ramadan.

Ramadan Kareem! 🌙
