***ANNOUNCEMENT*** Alhumdullilah, we are very happy to announce that efforts made by AMPAC and other community members has resulted in the City of Calgary also approving our request for masjids across Calgary to broadcast the Adhaan—the Muslim call to prayer—for the remaining days of Ramadan starting today, May 8, 2020. This approval is for the sunset or Maghrib prayer only. . The call to prayer does not invite people to physically gather; rather it is a beautiful gesture to bring our hearts together during this time of distancing. . Calgary now joins many mosques in Canada who have recently adopted the practice for the month of Ramadan for the sunset prayer only. We will be in touch with majids and organizations in Calgary. AMPAC has been designated as the main liaison between with the City of Calgary and the masjids for any Adhaan related items or updates. . AMPAC extends our deepest appreciation to the @cityofcalgary , City Council members, and most importantly, Mayor @nenshi for approving our request and understanding its importance to our community. This is a huge milestone and showcases the true beauty of our city, province, and country. . . . . . #ampac #albertamuslimpublicaffairscouncil #albertamuslims #yycmuslims #yyc #calgary #calgarymuslims #adhan #calltoprayer #alberta #acceptance #ramadan2020 #ramadanmubarak

This approval is for the sunset or Maghrib prayer only.

The call to prayer does not invite people to physically gather; rather it is a beautiful gesture to bring our hearts together during this time of distancing.

Calgary now joins many mosques in Canada who have recently adopted the practice for the month of Ramadan for the sunset prayer only.

We will be in touch with majids and organizations in Calgary.
