Weekly
Online Gathering of Remembrance: 2020 Update
In accordance with the advice of health experts, we will not be meeting in-person for our weekly Gatherings of Remembrance until further notice. We have moved our gatherings online, for the protection, safety, and well-being of everyone. We invite you to participate, with heart and speech. Join us as we recite Quran, supplications on the Most Beloved ﷺ and participate in the reflections and reminders from the teachers and scholars of our tradition. Join our online gathering, every Thursday at 8:30 PM, HERE.

How Do I Prepare Myself ?
We ask anyone who wants to join to approach the online gathering like you would approach an in-person gathering. Here are some beneficial guidelines we recommend:
Begin with an intention to please Allah
Wear fine clothes, wear perfume
Arrive on time
Sit with gravitas
Light incense if possible
Have some light snacks prepared that you can share with your family members after the gathering
Find a place where you can sit without being distracted by the typical hustle/bustle of a household
Parents can split/share childminding responsibilities so they can both get a share of quiet time in the gathering
If possible, put your phone on silent or in another room
What Will We Do?
We will, God willing, recite from the following booklet (Quran, Prophetic Innvocations, Duaas), and end the session with a short lesson/reminder.
Monthly
IN PRAISE OF THE BELOVED ﷺ BOOKLET: COMING SOON
In Praise of The Beloved ﷺ
Join us on the first Saturday/Sunday of every month, for a communal celebration of the blessed Prophet ﷺ. These monthly gatherings alternate between Calgary and Edmonton. The gatherings begin with a recitation of the Holy Quran, followed by a selection of classical odes of prophetic-praise authored by some of Islam’s earliest scholars. The monthly gathering concludes with a short lecture and late lunch.
