Young Sisters: Race Towards Ramadan. Starts April 20

Posted on by Ayisha Yahya

Allah (swt) says in the Qur’an: “And race (one another) to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous” [3:133]

The blessed month of Rajab is here and we are a little under two months away from the blessed month of Ramadan (may Allah allow us all to reach it!)

The pious predecessors used to prepare for Ramadan months in advance by renewing their intentions, performing voluntary fasts, and getting into the habit of reciting Qur’an and doing more good than usual.

Join us every Thursday at Masjid al Huda as we prepare ourselves for this blessed month! We invite you to fast with us every Thursday as we will have a light iftar together during halaqa and discuss different topics to better prepare us for Ramadan.

4/20: Qur’an by heart: How to develop a relationship with the Qur’an

4/27: Fiqh of Fasting

5/4: Creating a Ramadan “Game-plan”

5/11: Fountains of Forgiveness

5/18: Maximizing deeds like a Millionaire

5/25: A Productive Muslimah’s Ramadan

The Fault in our Hearts: Al Isra Camp 2015

Posted on by Admin

The moment you all have been waiting for is FINALLY here! We are now accepting applications for the Al-Isra Retreat 2015 that will take place this year Friday July 24-Sunday, July 26. 

Our theme this year is “The Fault in Our Hearts” and like many have guessed, will have a lot to do with Tazkiya, (purification of the soul) self-reflection, and much more.

We are also back at Baker Near Wilderness Front located in Maple Plain, MN (a favorite site for many) and look forward to many more memories. We will not only have an awesome Cook this summer making the delicious meals that you all love, but also a very special guest for camp.

This year’s camp will be unlike other camps. It will CHANGE the way you look at your heart. You will come back wishing you could do it all over again and with memories and lessons to last you a lifetime.

Knowing all of this now, how can you wait another second to register? Do it today and reserve your spot for Al-Isra Retreat 2015 “The Fault in Our Hearts”
