News Section
We have a new section under the prayer times that will include news headlines pertaining to Muslims. Insha'Allah it will be updated regularly, so please check back often so you don't miss out on what is happening to our ummah in various parts of the world. The opinions expressed do not reflect those of Jamaat Ibad Ar-Rahman and are merely provided for informational purposes.
Eid Announcement - IMPORTANT DETAILS!
Insha'Allah Eid will either be held on Thursday, September 9th or Friday, September 10th. We will post an announcement on our site on the night of Wednesday September 8th. Masha'Allah this year's Eid Prayer will be held at our newly acquired Parkwood facility. The location is 5122 Revere Road, Durham, NC 27713. Click here to download a map. The prayer will start at exactly 8am. Remember that for the Eid prayers the salat is held before the khutbah so make sure you arrive on time.
Parking will be closely monitored and supervised. Make sure you listen to the directions of the volunteers who will be directing you on where to park. For those who come late, please do not block any throughways or double park. This will be our first big event at the new facility and we want to make sure we leave a good impression for our neighbors. Jazak'Allah khair for your cooperation.
For those who have procrastinated till the last moment, remember to pay your Zakat-ul-Fitr before the start of the Eid prayer. Zakat-ul-Fitr is $10. Preferably you should start giving your Zakat-ul-Fitr now. There are yellow envelopes marked ZF in the masjid lobby. Place your money in the envelope and drop it in any of the donation boxes.
