Comments Off on 30 MORE | Day 18 – “MAC ICCO mobile vaccination clinic ready to go!!” – Muslim Association of Canada – Islamic Community Centre of Ontario – Mississauga
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 !
Today the @ICCO_MAC with @regionofpeel welcomed several hundred 18+ residents of Peel and successfully provided them with vaccinations.
Thank you to all the volunteers! pic.twitter.com/wCjP4PP17F— Muslim Association of Canada (MAC) (@MACNational) April 30, 2021
The optional privacy accommodation for women was appreciated by many who chose to be vaccinated privately. pic.twitter.com/RSzZtaX1OK

Alhamdulelah today's launch for the MAC ICCO mobile vaccination clinic was a success. 100% of the planned vaccine doses were given today. Today was a soft opening for the clinic with reduced numbers and it worked smoothly. PPH staff, nurses & MAC volunteers did a great job. pic.twitter.com/NgGDCGDtkY

The mobile vaccination clinic is an excellent initiative to make vaccination accessible to more people. It also used a community partnership model that help educate and remove barriers against vaccination. Thank you @ONThealth @ROPpublichealth for this successful partnership.

Comments Off on Day 18 – JUMAH – Third Friday – Nationwide Khutbah Campaign — To Increase Vaccine Confidence — A unified Friday Sermon message in all masajid across Canada — CMCTF — Canadian Muslim COVID-19 Task Force — Friday April 30 2021
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.

Comments Off on 30 MORE | Day 17 – VIDEO – “Wondering if getting vaccinated during Ramadan breaks your fast? In our chat with Imam Hamid Slimi, he says it doesn’t.” – Region of Peel – Ontario
“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.”
Wondering if getting vaccinated during Ramadan breaks your fast? In our chat with @ihslimi, he says it doesn’t. 💉⬇ pic.twitter.com/b5MxQM6Qv3
— Region of Peel (@regionofpeel) April 30, 2021
“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.”
Thank you @regionofpeel @BonnieCrombie @patrickbrownont @Caledon_Mayor @JohnTory @fordnation & @JustinTrudeau for doing your best to keep us all safe! This is unprecedented & we know how difficult are your tasks. We appreciate your leadership and your resilience! We keep praying. https://t.co/IDPMIcDDmL

“I’m missing masjid days,

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,

I’m missing leg fall asleep at the khutbah
After Eid prayers

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,

Or so we thought it
Happy Ramadan”

“Today marks an important day.
The formal Proclamation marking January 29th of every year as a National Day of Remembrance of the Quebec City Mosque Attack and Action against Islamophobia was published today in the Gazette.
We thank the government for taking this step to officially mark this day in the hearts and minds of all Quebecers and Canadians,
as a reminder of the innocent lives lost,
and the work ahead of us to eradicate Islamophobia,
hate and racism from our country.”
Glad to see this important day of remembrance of the attack on the Quebec City Mosque and recognition of the need to fight Islamophobia made permanent. Congratulations to all who fought so hard for this, despite significant opposition. https://t.co/WbzEaSYYZS

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 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;

Of all which Our loving subjects and all others whom these presents may concern are required to take notice and to govern themselves accordingly.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, We have caused this Our proclamation to be published and the Great Seal of Canada to be affixed to it.
