Dear Friends,
You are invited to join us for a special evening of celebration:
This important Islamic holy night, Lailat al Qadr, (the Night of Destiny) is the anniversary of the occasion when the first verses of the Qur’an were revealed by the Angel Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in a Meccan cave in the early morning hours of the year 610C.E. during the month of Ramadan.
Our zoom call will open at 6:45PM on Friday April 29th.
The program will begin promptly at 7:00PM. Bahiyaa Ann Holmes Redding and Imam Jamal Rahman will share teachings about this sacred night. The program will include Islamic chanting and Qur’anic recitation.
We will break our fast at 8:18PM with water and dates followed by sunset prayers (Maghrib). After prayers, we will participate in a more lengthy break-fast in our individual homes. Those attending this Lailat al Qadr event in-person will share a lovely meal at this time. Please bring a nutritious offering to share.
Following our individual and in-house break-fast (iftar), we shall regroup on Zoom at 9:15PM and begin our late night Prayer Vigil with Zikr (Prayers of Remembrance). We will share Isha prayer at 9:58PM. Then conclude our Zoom program.
Please arrive fully vaccinated, wearing a facemask when visiting the Sanctuary.
