Covid-19 (Coronavirus and Jumaah Announcement

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

Considering the on-going risks of COVID-19 (Coronavirus), ICWS has decided to have a shorter Jumaah. The first khutba will start at 1:25 pm and the second khutbah will be at 2:25 pm, inshaAllah. ICWS requests you to:

• Perform wudu and sunnahs prayers at home

• Avoid handshakes

• Try to attend the second jamaah as more people are expected in the first one

• Make your best judgment on whether to attend the salaah especially if you are 50+ years, sick or if Jumu’ah is not obligatory on you. You are most aware of your situation.

All programs at ICWS including Al-Andalus Saturday classes are canceled until further notice. Daily prayers will continue. ICWS requests the musallis to perform wudu and sunnah prayers at home.

ICWS will continue to monitor this situation. Please keep yourself and your family safe and follow the recommendations from the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Link to CDS’ website is https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html

May Allah protect us all. Ameen!
