  • Ramadan 2021 & COVID-19 Changes

    Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh brothers and sisters in Islam,

    Alhamdulillah, we are blessed to have our Mosque open for Ramadan this year. We still have to adhere to the government guidelines of keeping ourselves and others safe. There are a few points we would like to remind the community of.

    • Everyone must wear a face mask unless they are exempt.
    • Everyone must bring their own Musallah (prayer mat) and shoe bags.
    • Everyone must maintain social distance and not exchange handshakes at any time.
    • There must be no congregating inside or outside of the Mosque anytime.
    • Try to share transportation to avoid congestion around the Mosque.
    • If you are driving to the Mosque kindly park your car facing towards the fence to avoid disturbance to our neighbours with the lights.
    • Please kindly help yourself and others by following our advice.

    There will be Taraweeh this Ramadan the duration will be 1 hour (20 rakahs). You may leave at any time but we ask you to do so without disturbing people in worship and our neighbours when departing.

    Unfortunately due to the current pandemic, there will be no Iftar shared. Nor will there be any Itikaf.

    Everyone (brothers & sisters) will need to register online to attend Taraweeh as you all have been doing for Friday Jummah.

    We are aware that not everyone will be able to attend the Mosque. So we are planning for our community for those who can not attend Jummah and Taraweeh live streaming via Zoom. There will be also two Quran recitation sessions every day via Zoom. For sisters at 5 pm and Brothers at 6:30 pm. Zoom details to be confirmed.

    We encourage you all to donate towards the Mosque as it is the month of Charity. May Allah accept our Fast, Quran recitation, Charity, Taqwa, Duaa and repentance.

    EICC thanks the community for your continued cooperation, support and understanding.

    May Allah swt keep us all safe and well.

    Jazakhallah khair

  • Ramadan 2020

    السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

    Assalaamualaikum warahmatullah

    Dear brothers and sisters,

    We are happy to announce that in shaa Allah Ramadan will begin tomorrow on Friday the 24th of April 2020.

    In view of the current COVID-19 pandemic there will be no prayers held at the mosque. This year will be a very different year since it will be the first year ever where no prayers will be held in the Masjid at all for the duration of the blessed month of Ramadan.

    This difficulty gives us the perfect opportunity to reflect and get closer to Allah (swt).

    Please do pray Taraweeh prayers at home with your family and encourage them to do tahajud prayers too.

    Live with the Qur’an more and more.

    InshaAllah there will be daily Quran recitation sessions for the brothers on Zoom every day at 06:30pm from the first day of fasting (invitation to follow through social media & WhatsApp) where 1 Juz will be completed every day by the participants under the guidance and supervision of Imam Abdelrahem.

    All brothers are welcome to participate by reading or listening.

    InshaAllah there will be a similar daily sessions for the sisters arranged by the sisters (invitation will be sent on EICC Sisters WhatsApp).

    InshaAllah there will also be a daily duaas or ad’iyaa by Sheikh Ayaaz at 6.00pm from the first day of fasting.

    This is the perfect month to be charitable. Please do charity and zakat more and more.

    Please pay Zakatu Al-Fitr £5 per individual in your family. Please pay direct to EICC bank account or via Paypal. Here is the link. Please use “Zakat-ul-Fiter” for reference.

    May Allah accept our fasting, charities and all acts of worship and make this month a source of blessing, unity of hearts and intentions and guidance for us all.

    JazaakoumAllah khair
