Starting January 16th, 2021, we will be opening up the masjid in sha Allah for Fajr, Maghrib, and Isha prayers. The masjid will be open 10-15 minutes before the iqama time, and will close once the iqama is called. The guidelines are the same as the Jummah guidelines. Please read these guidelines to make sure you have all the proper supplies and please make wudu before coming to the masjid. The prayer will be open to both men and women! You must be 12 and older to be allowed in the masjid.
The prayer hall needs to be cleared within 10 minutes after the salat is over in order for the volunteers to clean and disinfect the masjid.
