As Ramadan is approaching, we’re planning to hold our next book club meeting two weeks after Eid. InShaAllah we are planning on reading “Love From Mecca to Medina” by S.K. Ali. Let’s take this time during the next few weeks and the blessed month of Ramadan to recharge, strengthen our connection with Allah (SWT), and focus on giving in His name. May we all be guided on the path of righteousness and drawn closer to Allah’s mercy.

‎اللهم اجعلنا من صوامه وقوامه
Allahumma ajilna min sawmi wa qawami
O Allah, make us among those who fast and stand (in prayer) during Ramadan.

Allahuma Ameen 🤲🏼
