The month of Rajab, one of the sacred four
a time to reflect, extra worship and seeking forgiveness at His door

The month brings reminder of the upcoming month of fasting
use it to mentally and physically prepare for the month of blessing

What can we do to prepare?
First lets deal with all the worldly affair

Next, Remember the hereafter and our final destination
Hell or heaven which of these are you working to make your final destination?

Thirdly, Charity, learn to help those more in need
With the intention of pleasing Allah, to succeed

Finally, Make dua’a to Allah seeking maghfirah & guidance
pray for a month with blessing & obedience

and may He bless us too during Shabaan
and let us reach the month of Ramadaan

Ameen

Life is a garden,
Good friends are the flowers,
And times spent together,
Life’s happiest hours;
And friendship, like flowers,
Blooms ever more fair
When carefully tended
By dear friends who care;
And life’s lovely garden
Would be sweeter by far
If all who passed through it
Were as nice as you are.

​The Masjid invites you….
A few days after Ramadan, many masjids were seen to cry.

Someone asked one, why?
You ask me why I am so grieved?

It’s because I have been deceived.
I ask, Oh Muslim, where have you gone, where are you?

Was the past month a dream? 

It doesn’t seem real or true.
Oh my beloved, was it all a dream, was it all a show?

That is why my tears do flow.
Why don’t you visit me, why have you not returned?

From the past month is this what you learned?
My soul is empty without you and also my heart

How can you feel at ease being so far apart?
You are the one, whom the Lord chose for his own remembrance,

So why should I not lament at your absence?
Why do I no longer hold any charm?

From where else will you attain inner peace or calm?
I call you every day but you do not respond

Day by day weakens our bond!
I call you in the day and I call you at night.

What’s happened? 

For sure something’s not right
Don’t you recognize me anymore? 

Don’t you hear my voice?

Is it deliberate or do you really have no choice?
When will you light me up again? 

Will I have to wait another year?

Going by past experience, that is what I fear!!
