In the absence of any verified reports of the 1st crescent of Muharram 1439 being sighted on Wednesday Sep 20, the month of Dhul Hijjah will complete its full cycle of 30 days. The Islamic year 1439 Hijri will begin insha Allah with Maghrib on Thursday Sep 21, with Friday, Sep 22 being the 1st day of the new year. We pray that Allah SWT continues to shower the ummah with his blessings in the new year. The Day of 'Ashura (10th of Muharram) will fall on Sunday, Oct 1. Please join us with your family and friends for our annual 'Ashura program in the evening of October 1.
