Throughout the year, we drift apart and away like beads on a slippery surface, a broken tasbih, waiting to be linked again. With Ramadan approaching, how do we reconnect ourselves? Join us with Dr. Zahra Murtaza, Sr. Zulaija Nieto, and Sidi Mahdy Amine for a night of reconnection with each other and with the Ramadan state of mind through reminders of how to cleanse our minds, bodies, and souls.

We will also have local vendors on site, and Halal Bites of Chicago! Join us with your family & friends!

4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. | Saturday. March 11 |  Prayer Hall | RSVP at https://mcceastbay.org/link-ramadan
