as-Salaamu alaykum everyone!
We have missed you tremendously this past year! The board of ICCF is excited to announce that this coming Friday, March 19th at 1:30pm, we will have our first in person Jumu’ah prayer since March 6, 2020.
Jumu’ah prayer will be held outdoors in the yard and we will follow strict guidelines to keep everybody safe, inshallah! In order to do so, we have established a safety protocol that follows the rules set by the CDC and Fresno County that we all will be following (see below).
- All congregants will be required to wear a mask that covers the mouth and nose at all times.
- Please do not arrive early to avoid congregating. We will begin to gather at 1:15pm.
- Perform wudhu at home as no access to restrooms will be available.
- No food or water will be available.
- Congregants will be required to bring their own items as needed as nothing will be provided:
- Qur’an
- Tasbih
- Turbah
- Bag for Shoes
- The prayer will be outside on the grass so bring whatever mat/rug/blanket you feel will keep you comfortable for the duration.
- Do not attend if you have any signs of sickness (sneezing, coughing, temperature, etc.)
- We know that this will be the hardest for all of us, as we miss each other so much, but we ask that you all practice safety and caution and avoid shaking hands, hugging, touching, or passing items between one another at the Center.
We will have a volunteer monitoring our gathering and keeping us on track and safe.
For those who wish to watch online, it will be broadcasted live here.
Additionally, although not a strict requirement, we ask that you email your intention to attend to [email protected] as this would be greatly appreciated for our planning purposes.
We will periodically reassess the situation and will continue to meet outdoors for Jumu’ah prayer at 1:30pm each week until further notice. We truly look forward to being with you again!
