Day 7 of Ramadan and we are inside the Prayer Hall of the Rose City Islamic Centre in Windsor, Ontario.
It’s between Asr and Maghrib time. In the barrier-free sister’s area, a stop motion video is being recorded.
Lina, Bayan, and Amy are filming flower petals being positioned into the shape of letters spelling,
Together We Flourish

Mohammed Baobaid and the Muslim Resource Centre for Social Support and Integration.

We met in his office at 111 Waterloo Street shortly before the first Jumah of Ramadan 2013…

Comments Off on Day 2 – Fasting Safely with Diabetes
Got Diabetes?
Yet still eager to fast?
Too bad.
Until recently you were out of luck.
Fasting safely as option for Muslims with Diabetes is something new and still developing.
I first noticed the flyer pictured above pinned to a bulletin board the moment I first entered the London Muslim Mosque. Ever since, I’ve kept seeing the flyer at various Muslim points of interest I’ve visited.

Ayyub (Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him, his family, and companions) said, “Whoever fasts Ramadan and follows it with six days from Shawwal it is as if they fasted the entire year.” [Muslim, Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah; Ahmad transmitted it from Jabir, Muntaqa]
Thawban (Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him, his family, and companions) said, “Whoever fasts Ramadan, and then six days after Eid, it is [like fasting] an entire year. Whoever does a good deed shall have ten times its reward.” [Ibn Majah, Muntaqa]
