SUMMARY:#TeamFajr Monthly Sunday Breakfast & Qur'an Khatam
DESCRIPTION:“If people knew the reward in praying Fajr & Isha in a congregation\, they would go to the Masjid even if they had to crawl” [Bukhari & Muslim] \nJoin Qari Amar Bellaha on the first Sunday of each month. Pray the pre-dawn prayer in congregation (5:20 a.m.)\, followed by recitations of Surah Yaseen and Al-Wird Al-Latif (booklets provided) in unison\, community dua\, and following sunup\, Salat al-Ishraq prayer in congregation. Qari Amar will also lead the Khatam (completion) of the Qur’an. Each month\, congregation members complete one Juz of the Holy Qur’an. Please finish your Juz by the first Sunday of each month. Sign up for Juz at mcceastbay.org/juz This program is also streamed virtually at https://mcceastbay.org/live. 2025 Sunday Monthly Khatam with Qari Amar Bellaha: \n\n– January 5\, 2025\n– February 2\, 2025\n– No TeamFajr in Ramadan\n– April 6\, 2025\n– May 4\, 2025\n– June 1\, 2025\n– July 6\, 2025\n– August 3\, 2025\n– September 7\, 2025\n– October 5\, 2025\n– November 2\, 2025\n– December 7\, 2025\n\nThere are numerous benefits and virtues of reciting the Holy Qur’an and sending Salawat upon Rasulullah (S).
