THE PROPHET’S FAST
Insha Allah, the blessed month of Ramadhan will be with us soon. It is a month of Allah’s Mercy, Forgiveness and Blessings; the month of the Quran and Muslim solidarity.
‘The Prophet’s Fast’ is a workshop that aims to prepare our children for Ramadhan and help them better appreciate it, through the beautiful examples of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w). They will be taught the importance of fasting from the spiritual and physical aspects, why they should maximize their ibadah during this month and the ways to do so. They will come to know our Prophet’s fast better as they relive his days and nights in Ramadhan. The workshop further aims to help them understand why this month is special and motivate them in making this Ramadhan better than previous ones.
Catering to two age groups, each participant will be given a Ramadhan Guide and Activity Booklet. As places are limited do respond to the contacts provided the soonest possible.
