Calling Muslims in Leicester & beyond! If you’re going for Jumu’ah Friday prayers at a mosque, I humbly urge & beg you to pls reconsider. I’ll be praying 4 raka’at Zuhr at home with my wife & kids. I believe Allah will reward this too. Keep loved ones & others safe from

As Mosques reopen, let’s keep ourselves and others safe by taking turns to keep numbers down, and everyone gets a fair chance to attend. Pls follow guidelines and cooperate with stewards & volunteers. May Allah accept our prayers, āmīn

I'm blessed to be going on Hajj. I failed to do this in person but I'm asking for forgiveness from everyone that I've wronged. Pls forgive me so that I may be pardoned by Allah. May He pardon you as you forgive me and shower His choicest blessings upon you & your loved ones, amin

Calling all Muslims! Shari’ah forbids stockpiling food & stuff during a crisis. Let us shop as normal. There’s enough for everyone, if we show consideration for others. ‘None of you truly believes until you love for others what you love for yourself’ - Prophet Muhammad

Calling all Muslim traders! Shari’ah forbids hoarding & self hiking up of prices of food & commodities during a crisis. You can help everyone by trading as normal & limiting how much of any one item customers buy. Trust in Allah, and enable the system to operate normally

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to perform the ‘Īd prayer outdoors except when it was raining. Due to the rain today, I too shall pray in a masjid (mosque). May Allāh accept all our prayers, āmīn.

Huge relief to see most Leicester mosques cancelled Friday prayers at the last minute today. Shocked to hear about those who continued as normal despite a confirmed
