As-Salaamu Alaykum dear brothers and sisters,
We’ve been recently informed of the official decision and announcement of the High Judiciary Council of the Two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madeenah regarding the beginning of Dhul-Hijjah!
1st of Dhul-Hijjah will be on Thursday 30th of June, and the Muslims performing Hajj will be at ‘Arafah on Friday 8th of July (9 Dhul-Hijjah 1443), and we shall be celebrating ‘Eed al-Ad’haa on Saturday 9th of July (10 Dhul-Hijjah 1443), in-shaa-Allaah.
The Eid prayer will take place on the Masjid’s parking lot (subject to weather conditions) on Saturday July 9th. Please arrive by 8:30AM, whereas the prayer will commence at 9:00AM in-shaa-Allah. Please bring your prayer mats!
Our Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم was reported to have said:
إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ هِلاَلَ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ وَأَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ فَلْيُمْسِكْ عَنْ شَعْرِهِ وَأَظْفَارِهِ
When the new moon of Dhul-Hijjah appears and one of you wants to do the sacrifice, then he should abstain from (cutting) his hair and his nails [Sahih Muslim 1977e]
Therefore whoever has the ability to offer the sacrifice (ud’hiyah / Qurbani) should do so and plan ahead accordingly.
- The Ud’hiyah/Qurbani reservations can be made at Meadow Valley Meats which is based in Pitt Meadows, facilitated by the Masjid.
- For details on costs and reservation, please see the Reservation Form.
