  • June 2018 Update

    Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Brothers and Sisters in Islam,

    Alhumdulillah work has resumed after the holy month of Ramadan. You will notice the bollards on the side of the building and the design of the front entrance are being built to make the entrance safer and more secure. These things are to do with safety and security only and nothing else.

    You will also notice on the left side of the Mosque, the stairs which have been added for the ladies and children is a requirement for fire regulations. It is a fire exit, built in such a way that the ladies can leave their shoes and buggies downstairs and access the praying area upstairs so, these stairs will be used as a dual purpose.

     

    In front of the Mosque, there is a lovely circular structure (planter) being constructed. This will give an added Islamic feature to complement our Mosque.

     

    Brothers and Sisters as always all these great achievements and progress could not have been done without your generous donations, patience, and continuous support. To maintain our Mosque and the ongoing development we still require your involvement and your generous donations. May Allah bless all your good intentions.

    Assalamwalaikoum Brothers and Sisters in Islam,

     

    Below is your copy of the April 2018 EICC newsletter.

    New Mosque
    MaA sha Aallah, the construction of the mosque has progressed very well and In sha Allah, we will be praying in our new mosque before Ramadan. The building is close to completion and we thank all the people who have contributed generously and made it possible to have a secure mosque for the people of Eastbourne. Security measures have incurred extra costs. May Allah reward all the donors and helpers and all their families with a House in Jannah.

    We thank the community for being patient and the Groups that have been working behind the scene to ensure planning, construction and the smooth development of the mosque.

    The vision is to In sha Allah develop the mosque into a vibrant centre with religious, educational and social activities for the community. There will be consultation (Mashwara) and community involvement to ensure we altogether move forward as a strong united Muslim community.

     

    Education
    In sha Allah,Masjid education will be developed for adults and children. Details to follow In sha Allah.

     

    Maintenance of the Mosque
    It is our duty to ensure the mosque is maintained and used with care. Maintenance is costly and we appeal to the community for a regular donation through Direct Debit In sha Allah. It is your donations and income generation initiatives that will ensure we continue to provide existing and new services.

     

    Taraweeh Prayer
    Ramadan timetable is being prepared and will be available soon. In sha Allah, there will be short talks /workshops before Maghrib during the weekends about fasting etiquette and Ramadan Matters In sha Allah. Iftar will be celebrated in the Masjid and a list will be available for brothers and sisters who wish to contribute. Isha Salat followed by Taraweeh prayer will start at 11.00pm and we encourage all brothers and sisters to attend so that we can pray Taraweeh together as one community in our new mosque. However, arrangements are being made to have a second Taraweeh prayer for those who are working late at night.

     

    Eid Prayer
    We aim to continue to hold the Eid Party In sha Allah, after the Eid prayer. We will need volunteers as usual. Details will be announced nearer the time.

     

    Volunteers
    Volunteers are needed for all various activities including:

     

    Dawah
    Presenting Islam to the wider community (open days, inviting neighbours to the masjid and so on)

     

    Education
    Supporting the youths in various ways, organising activities and so on
