Assalamualaikum,

I used to come for the classses when daylight savings was in effect, but have not attended since daylight savings ended due to work commitments. Do the classes still start at 7.30pm now ?

Wassalam

Assalaaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

Yes the classes begin at 7:30pm with Qur'an recitation and then a short talk or a slideshow followed by Ustadh's talk. So if you have the time following work, try and attend inshaAllah as the topics vary from every week.

Since daylight savings time has made things much more easier, the starting times for the classes have been very much on time Alhamdulillah.

Fi Amanillah

Wassalaamu 'alaikum

Assalamualaikum

MashaAllah I must say the attendees were overwhelming last week.

Even though its foggy and raining, that doesnt stopped them from coming to learn their Deen. May Allah (swt) reward them abundantly with Jannatul Firdaus InshaAllah. Remember this Hadith: When a group gather to remember Allah (members are brought by mercy of Allah – being a member is a favor Allah), Angels will surround the gathering and shower Allah’s mercy and forgiveness and list the names of the members and call more angels.
o Allah asks angels where they are coming from
o Angels say they were coming from a group remembering Allah
o Allah forgives all members of the gathering
 Even if a member hadn’t intended to be a part of the gathering

Its also a good idea that Ustadh recommend few books for attendees to buy from the bookshop downstairs. Sometimes it was given a special discounts, so bring some cash on tomorrow nite for the next recommended book to read from Ustadh. The bookshop accept eftpos too

Assalaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

Yes, last weeks attendance was passed 120, Alhamdulillah.
We do everything for ourselves, and coming to a Halaqah is also for our own development inshaAllah. As 'Ali Radi'Allahu 'anh said: "Whatever good I have done was for myself and whatever evil I have done is to myself".

Hence attending weekly classes is a great oportunity to get reminded of our daily duties, of our humanity, of who we are, and what our purpose is in this temporary life. Is life about eating, smoking, drugs, gambling, stealing, or is it to live life in accordance with the rules set out by the Supreme and only One?
To give thanks for all the health and well being which we have is a part of ones being an obedient servant to the Lord of All the Worlds.

Fi Amanillah

Assalamualaikum

Can I make a little suggestion. Well not only me, some others too asking is pizza the only food served at the classes

Do we really hv to have food after class and why not before class. Some attendees come straight after work or uni so they must be starving if class starts late and hving food at 10.00pm. Ive attended both tues and fri nites classes and ppl can get tired of having pizzas all the time. Why not just hv simple tea and coffee and variety of biscuits. It could be frustrating when the talk lasts only for an hour.

Sorry for this

Assalaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

It seems that your suggestion has become a reality for Tuesday night coolMuslim. Food will be served at 7:30pm from now on - till Ramadan starts.

JazakAllahu Khayr.

Fi Amanillah

Assalamu alaikum

i guess it comes down to practicality, and pizza is a pretty easy option to be honest, gets delivered, is easy to pack up and not much mess Alhamdulillah.

Assalaamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

For the next 4 Friday nights inshaAllah - Iftar will take place at CIC.

So if you were used to attending Friday night Usrah classes - simply come on down and join in the hasanat of breaking fast at the Masjid of Allah subhaanahu wa ta'ala.

Ramadan Kareem to all of you - please keep us all in your du'as.

Assalamualaikum

Just a reminder that Fri Nite usrah started last week, maybe due to short notice, not many attendees last week, so please let your friends know that Fri nite usrah has already started
