Please join us with your family on this blessed occasion. On Friday, September 21, 2018, the City of Hayward, California recognized Muslim Appreciation Month at the American Muslim Association (AMA), which is also known as the Gading Masjid. On behalf of Mayor Barbara Halliday, Assistant City Manager David Korth presented the proclamation at Jumu'ah prayer after meeting with CAIR-SFBA and several congregants.

Assemblymembers Bill Quirk (D-Hayward), Kansen Chu (D-Milpitas), and Ash Kalra (D-San Jose) authored Resolution 118 that made August 2018 as “Muslim American Appreciation & Awareness” for the third consecutive year. This is the display at the entrance of the Weekes Branch Library in Hayward. We thank the efforts of the City of Hayward and CAIR-SFBA for making this happen! Hayward Mayor Barbara Halliday will also deliver a proclamation of appreciation for the Hayward Muslim community this Friday at the Gading Mosque Friday service (Jumu'ah), which will be held at 1:15 p.m. at the Golden Peacock Restaurant in Hayward. According to the Fiqh Council of North America, the Eid ul Adha will be on Tuesday, August 21. Eid Mubarak!
On Tuesday, Aug. 21, we will hold two Eid prayer services at Masjid Abu Bakr Al-Sideeq on Monday, Sept. 12. The first will be promptly at 8:30 a.m. and the second prayer will be promptly at 10 a.m. The Eid al-Adha date is also in accordance with the Hajj authorities announcement of the Day of Arafah (the main day of Hajj), which is on Monday, August 20, 2018. It is mustahabb (highly recommended) for those who are not pilgrims to fast on the Day of ‘Arafah (Monday Aug. 20). The Prophet (peace be upon him) was asked about fasting on the Day of ‘Arafah. He said: “It expiates the sins (minor) of the past year and the coming year ...” [Muslim] 10 Reasons Why We Should Take the First 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah Seriously  Eid ul-Fitr will be on Friday, June 15, 2018. Come join us at Masjid Abu Bakr Al Siddiq for prayers. There will be two prayer services:
Takbeerat Begin at 8 a.m.; First Prayer: 8:30 a.m. Takbeerat Begin at 9:30 a.m. Second prayer: 10 a.m. Fitra: If you have not done so already, please remember to pay the Fitra before the prayer starts. The Fitra is $7.00 per each family member. There is a Fitra box at the masjid. Please also remember to be silent and listen to the Imam’s Khutba after the prayer. Ibn Abbas R.A reported, the Prophet PBUH made Zakat ul Fitr compulsory so that those who fasted may be purified of their idle deeds and shameful talk (committed during Ramadan) and so that the poor may be fed. Whoever gives it before Eid Salat will have it accepted as Zakat, while he who gives it after the Salat has given Sadaqah. – Abu Dawood Masjid Abu Bakr congratulates the congregation of the American Muslim Association of Hayward - Gading Masjid on completion of the masjid at 26320 Gading Rd, Hayward, CA 94544. To reach the mosque, please call (510) 786-2662 or email Gading Mosque President Mohammed Khan at mkhan333@yahoo.com.  Based on the moon sighting, the first night of Taraweeh will be on Friday, May 26 and the first day of Ramadan will be on Saturday, May 27.
Isha prayers at the Masjid Abu Bakr will start at 10 p.m. every night in Ramadan and be followed by the Taraweeh prayer led by Qari Abdul Basir Durani. Ramadan Timetable Masjid Abu Bakr adheres to the traditional principle that Islamic lunar months begin and end based on the confirmed, verifiable naked-eye sighting of the new crescent moon. Due to multiple such sightings, Ramadan will begin tomorrow. Eid-ul-Fitr is slated for Sunday, June 25 or Monday, June 26, based on the moon sighting. May Allah (swt) accept all our worship and supplications in this month of mercy and grace. Ameen. |
