Muharram 1443
2022-02-01 08:00 - 17:00
Alhamdulillah, the Hilal Council of Canada declared that Muharram starts on Tuesday August 10, 2021. Therefore the 10th day of Muharram will fall on Thursday August 19, 2021. Everyone is reminded that fasting on the 9th and 10th or the 10th and 11th day of Muharram is a great Sunnah. May Allah allow us to partake in this rewarding act.
Ubaydallah ibn Abi Yazid reported: Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said, “I did not see the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, as eager to fast a day and preferring it over others except for this day of Ashura and this month of Ramadan.”
Source: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1902
Abdullah ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “If I live until next year, I will certainly fast the ninth day of al-Muharram.”

New Moon Sighted - Ramadan Mubarak
2022-02-01 08:00 - 17:00
Alhamdulillah the new moon has been sighted in San Diego, California and verified by the Scholars of HCC. Thus Sha’ban ends tonight, with the 1st fast of Ramadhan tomorrow, Tuesday, April 13th in sha Allah. Taraweeh will also commence tonight.
This Ramadhan, like last Ramdhan, is going to be very different than the previous years and thus is going to be a relatively new experience for everyone. With the limited capacity the masjid can accommodate due to the restrictions, Masjid-ut-Taqwa has given priority to the neighbours, regular musallees and those that requested in advance to attend taraweeh prayers. We are sorry we cannot accommodate everyone. We request everyone else to see if their local masjids can accommodate, and if not, to do their night ibadah and taraweeh at home.
May Allah keep us all healthy, allow us to fill our days with worship and good deeds, and allow us to attain His complete pleasure. May Allah SWT give us steadfastness in Ramadhan, accept our fasts, prayers, and all other forms of ‘ibaadah. May Allah SWT enable us to worship Him during the night of Qadr, and may he help us all continue with good deeds throughout the rest of the year. Ameen!
Ramadhan Mubarak to you and your family!

COVID-19 Regulations
2022-02-01 08:00 - 17:00
Assalamu Alaykum Warahmathullahi Wabarakaatuh,
We ask the congregation to abide by the following measures in order to reduce the risk of being infected and infecting others:

Please come with your own prayer mat, a cloth, or a handkerchief.
Please make Wudhu at home before coming to the Masjid
Those with underlying health conditions, elders, sisters, and children are to pray at home
All evening and daytime classes, as well as weekend classes are cancelled until April 5th
All other classes and regular adult programs are cancelled until the first week of April
We ask everyone who visited the affected countries or places to refrain from coming to the Masjid and follow Public Health regulations
We ask everyone to pray their Sunnah prayers at home
Practice regular sanitation to reduce the chances of being infected
Avoid physical contact with others (please don’t feel offended if one does not offer to shake hands)
In addition to taking the above precautions, please make lots of Dua, Istighfar, recitation of the Holy Qur’an, and regularly give charity. All of these practices will Insha-Allah protect us all from calamities and help others in difficult conditions. This is a time for us to get close to our Creator.
We encourage you to recite the following Dua abundantly:

لا إله إلا أنت سبحانك إني كنت من الظالمين
There is none worthy of worship but You—Pure are you! I am indeed from the wrongdoers!

COVID-19 - Suspension of all services including prayer
2022-02-01 08:00 - 17:00
Assalamu Alaykum Warahmathullahi Wabarakaatuh
After much deliberation, it is indeed, with a heavy heart that Masjid-ut-Taqwa announces the temporary suspension of all services. As a result, it will be closed to the public till further notice. As we monitor the situation, we will, Insha Allah, inform the community once activities resume.
In this difficult time, please remain in your homes and perform your prayers together as a family. We ask everyone to spend their time in seeking Allah’s SWT assistance to remove this calamity upon us.
We ask Allah SWT to forgive us, guide us, strengthen us, and allow us to turn to him always.
May the choicest salutations and peace be upon the chosen Messenger, his family, and his companions.
JazakumAllahu Khairan.
Sincerely,
Board of Directors
