Eid-ul-Adha 2025/1446

Eid-al-Adha is the second Eid of the year that Muslims celebrate and coincides with the pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia and honours Abraham’s (pbuh) promise to God. This Eid will be celebrated with a heavy heart, thinking of those that are oppressed, facing wars and of those without families. In these blessed days may all pilgrims’ prayers and ours be accepted. May the prayers of all those facing hardships be accepted and I pray they find ease.

Eid Mubarak. Taqabbal Allahu Minna Wa Minkum (May Allah accept it from you and us)

Eid-al-Fitr 2025/1446: Eid Mubarak

Eid Mubarak to all the Muslims celebrating Eid al-Fitr. The days of fasting were quite short this year and the month of Ramadan sped by, just as I was getting used to the change of routine. It was a difficult Ramadan to see the ceasefire broken in Gaza and Palestinians subjected to more bombardments and bloodletting, May Allah have mercy. Eid is a day of celebration, and as we spend time with our loved ones, we will be thinking and praying of the Palestinians and others around the world that have empty places at their dinner tables. May Allah accept our fasts, prayers and forgive our sins, May Allah have mercy on us all.

Eid-al-Fitr 2024/1445: Eid Mubarak

Eid Mubarak everyone. The month of Ramadan seems to have gone by quicker than expected and while challenging it has also been rewarding God willing. It was a tough month seeing so many Muslims around the world facing war and harsh conditions, may Allah make it easy for them. It makes me and I’m sure many others grateful for everything we have. I hope everyone has a lovely day with family and friends and remembers those that can’t be part of our celebrations this year and those that are less fortunate.

Eid-ul-Adha 2021/1442

Eid-ul-Adha has visited us again. All restrictions have been eased here in England but we still need to be careful as the pandemic isn’t over yet, not for us, not for the world. The pilgrimage (hajj) in Saudi Arabia was limited to just residents again this year, but we can all mark the days as special wherever we are. I pray that the pandemic eases for everyone, that we cherish the time we have with our loved ones and Allah has mercy and bestows forgiveness on us all. A reminder to also think of those in hardship across the world and hope that their prayers are answered.
Eid Mubarak everyone, I hope you all enjoy this blessed day wherever you are. Taqabbal Allahu Minna Wa Minkum (May Allah accept it from you and us).
