وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِين

 

 

“And

˹remember, O Prophet,˺

when the disbelievers conspired to capture,

kill,

or exile you.

They planned,

but Allah also planned.

And Allah is the best of planners.”

—  Surah Al-Anfal, The Spoils of War,
Chapter 8: Verse 30 in The Holy Qur’an

 

Ayah describes EXACTLY what this UNSANCTIONED EID PRAYER IS :

Disbelievers who are PLOTTING to KILL US using the Corona Virus.

KILL US  by creating an  ILLEGAL  COVID-19 Super Spreader event.

 

 

PROPER EID PRAYER’ EVENT: AN UNSANCTIONED GATHERING

 

May 1, 2021 | Ramadan 19, 1442 AH

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Abundant Peace, Blessings and Salutations upon the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

We, at the Canadian Muslim COVID-19 Task Force, supported by the National Council of Canadian Muslims,

the Muslim Council of Peel,

the Muslim Medical Association of Canada,

and the Canadian Council of Imams

have reviewed an announcement circulating within our communities regarding a gathering labelled as “Proper Eid Prayer” being organized in Mississauga, Ontario,

in contravention of public health orders.

This event threatens the health and well-being of Muslims

and is

apparently being hosted by a group with a non-Muslim leadership and notorious anti-masker conspiracy theorists.

One of the key articles of our faith is the preservation of life.

Our rich history has a clear precedent of quarantine measures,

restricting mobility during plagues,

taking vaccines and deferring to health experts amidst a health crisis.

We are proud of our Canadian faith leaders and community members as they continue to lead the way in keeping our homes,

mosques,

communities and country safe by following all public health directives.

At the same time we are in great distress as our essential workers and racialized community members,

especially within the region of Peel,

continue to disproportionately pay the ultimate price during this deadly third wave.

We suspect that some media agencies may take this opportunity to report on this call for the defiance of public health orders.

As a measure of caution,

we highly recommend they do their research,

do not re-share information that propagates falsehoods

and identify this group’s call for what it is – a non-Muslim led, anti-mask, anti-lockdown gathering.

On Day 15 of Ramadan 2021,

MAC ICCO opened online Vaccination Popup Clinic Registration.

All 7,000 Appointments were filled in less than 2 hours.

Today,

Islamic Community Centre of Ontario Vaccine Clinic is all set up and ready to receive clients . . .

Many of those registered are Muslims living in Mississauga and Brampton.

Ironically,

With the Provincial Stay-at-Home order still in effect and Houses of Worship in Ontario currently limited to only 10 people inside at any one time,

This Vaccination Clinic may the only time many of Peel Region’s Muslims will be able to spend any time at all inside a Msjid.

So,

This might be your only chance to make intention for Iʿtikāf ( اعتكاف ) inside a masjid during this second Pandemic Ramadan!

Welcome to Islamic Community Centre of Ontario.

The ICCO.

Normally a Masjid, transformed these days into a Pop Up Vaccination Clinic.

Where you show up with your Vaccine Booking information to sign in and be directed to a Vaccine Station.

The Vaccine Station where you sit beside a trained vaccine doser and get the jab.

These are the physically distanced chairs you sit in for the full 15 minutes after you get your first dose.

A safety precaution.

Most people feel fine after getting their first vaccine jab in their upper arm.

This is where Muslims have an opportunity for Dhikr, The Remembrance of Allah SWT, inside a Masjid this Ramadan.

Make those minutes count !

Nationwide Khutbah Campaign

 

To Increase Vaccine Confidence

 

A unified Friday Sermon message in all masajid across Canada
 

Friday April 30 2021

 

1. COVID-19 EFFECT ON MUSLIMS

Data from the U.K., South Africa, USA, and even Canada, shows that ethno-racialized communities, which include many Muslims, have been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic.

2. VACCINE HESITANCY

Although vaccine rollouts have started, some Muslims are hesitant to take the vaccine due to misinformation or attention-grabbing headlines that have not allowed risks to be contextualized.

3. VACCINES ARE SAFE, EFFECTIVE & HALAL

Muslim healthcare professionals and Islamic scholars from North America and Europe have verified the ingredients and issued statements affirming their safety, effectiveness and permissibility.

4. MUSLIMS’ COLLECTIVE DUTY

We have a collective duty towards those who are vulnerable and to protect our community.

That’s the prophetic way.

5. LOCAL MUSLIM LEADERSHIP

There are many educational, advocacy, and social support services established by and for Canadian Muslims.

Please visit the CMCTF website for COVID-19 related resources and information.

 

 

Imam Dr. Hamid Slimi recently received his COVID-19 vaccine at a vaccination clinic in Mississauga.

He has some great advice for the community about getting vaccinated during the month of Ramadan.”

Region of Peel

“Ramadan 1442 is going to be another different Ramadan but a positive one.

Many of our Muslim community members are asking if they can take the vaccination when fasting.

Yes,

you can.

It doesn’t feed you and it doesn’t quench your thirst.

If you feel dizzy,

which is rare,

and you cannot control your body,

then you are allowed to break your fast.

It is a priority so I would encourage you to take the vaccine.

We pray that you have a wonderful experience and that you keep the memories of this Ramadan for many years to come.

Enjoy it and make the best of it.”

Imam Dr. Hamid Slimi

“I’m missing masjid days,

masjid praise

I’m missing aunties and uncles with all their masjid slays

I’m missing sisters and brothers

I’m missing lovin’ each other

I’m missing all around town,

mega family and cousins

I’m missing leg fall asleep at the khutbah

After Eid prayers

barbecues and the cookouts

Ramadan feasts is when everybody hood out

Giving all this charity

so we can throw some good out

I’m talking Qur’an class on the weekends

Aunties in the kitchen making sure we get that feed in

Everybody’s daddy was my uncle for no reason

Chillin’ on the brothers side,

so young enough to sneak in

Or so we thought it

Happy Ramadan”

Whereas six persons were killed and 19 persons were injured by a gunman who entered the Islamic Cultural Centre of the City of Québec shortly after the end of evening prayers on January 29, 2017 and opened fire;

Whereas this act of terror devastated the families and friends of the victims, Muslim communities in Quebec, across Canada and around the world, and all Canadians;

Whereas it is important that Canadians have an opportunity to honour the memory of the victims, to recognize those who selflessly and courageously put themselves in harm’s way to protect others and to express solidarity with the survivors of this tragedy;

Whereas Islamophobia, racism, violent extremism, and the denial of these realities are at the root of this horrifying crime;

Whereas it is important that Canadians denounce Islamophobia and all other forms of racism, hate and religious discrimination and take action to combat them;

Whereas it is important that Canadians resolve to build a foundation for change by removing barriers and promoting a more inclusive and equitable country for all, where every person is able to participate and succeed fully and safely;

And whereas, by Order in Council P.C. 2021-276 of April 8, 2021, the Administrator of the Government of Canada in Council directed that a proclamation do issue requesting the people of Canada to observe January 29 of every year as a National Day of Remembrance of the Québec City Mosque Attack and Action against Islamophobia;

Of all which Our loving subjects and all others whom these presents may concern are required to take notice and to govern themselves accordingly.
