EID Salah at home
(taken from reading Jamme Masjid)
In light of the current COVID-19 lockdown, those who follow the
Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali Schools of Sunni Islamic law may perform the
Eid prayer at home, even individually according to some schools.
However, there is no requirement for the khutba.
As for those who follow the Hanafi School, the position taken by
Shaykh Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani and many other scholars, is that the
Eid prayer will not be performed in private homes where there is no
public access. Rather, one may offer four raka'at supererogatory
(nafl/duha) prayers. However, the position of some other contemporary
Hanafi scholars is that the Eid prayer can be performed at home, but in a
minimum congregation of four people.
Please stay safe and socially distant from friends and family while celebrating. Read more about this discussion here.
How to Pray Eid-ul Fitr Salah at Home under lockdown
(taken from East London Mosque)
The scholars have different opinions on whether we should perform the Eid prayer at home. Some take the view that there is no Eid prayer at home. Others say you can pray at home; some say individually, and some that the household can pray together led by the head of the household.
There is no sermon if praying at home, but we can give each other good advice and Islamic reminders.
How to perform the Eid prayer
If you do decide to pray at home, then this is a reminder on how to perform the prayer. There are two rak‘ahs, each with extra Takbirs; the number and timing depends on which school of thought you follow:
Hanafi: in the first rak‘ah, after the opening Takbir and before you recite Al-Fatihah, there are 3 extra takbirs; in the second rak‘ah, before ruku‘ there are also 3 extra takbirs, followed by the takbir for ruku‘. This is the way we perform the Eid prayer at the East London Mosque (as the majority of our congregation follow the Hanafi school of thought).
Others: in the first rak‘ah, after the opening Takbir and before you recite Al-Fatihah, there are 7 extra takbirs; in the second rak‘ah, at the start after the Takbir for standing up and before you recite Al-Fatihah, there are 5 extra takbirs.

An excellent reminder for us all...
•••
Dear Muslims (born into Muslim families),
Do me a favour...especially those of you who consider yourselves active in da'wah...if you have a revert friend please invite them over on Eid.
Eid is the loneliest and most depressing day for many reverts and many of us don't have any Muslim family to celebrate or share our joy with.
Walking back to our car after Eid prayer is the worst.
On the long walk back to our cars we witness Muslim families posing for pictures, smiling from ear to ear and spreading glad tidings amongst themselves. While reverts don't have any Muslim family to celebrate with, oftentimes we are alone before, during and after Eid prayer.
Families and congregants speak to each other in their mother tongues, forgetting that we, the revert, don't speak or share their language and don't understand what they are saying. Making us feel like outsiders in our own community.
Others shriek with joy as they bump into old friends and extended family members. They embrace warmly and make oaths to reconnect. While we know no one. Many of our previous friends and family members stopped speaking to us since our conversion.
Children are running around wildly with balloons, candy and money. We know in that very moment we are witnessing a precious childhood memory in the making. For a second we share their joy and think to ourselves how lucky this kid is to have such a wonderful experience. At the same time, we can't help but wonder if our (future) children will ever experience the same joy.
We watch other families frantically rush off to partake in their traditions such as Eid breakfast, gift swapping or house hopping from party to party. While we sit in our cars, with our hands on the steering wheel wondering what we can do by ourselves for the remainder of the day...
Unfortunately, the aforementioned is the reality for many reverts on Eid. With a community as large as we have, NO ONE should be lonely on a day that should be full of congregational-communion, love, laughter and breaking of bread.
Born Muslims, do me a favor and call your revert friend and invite them over on Eid.
It means more to us than you'll ever know 🙂
JazzakumAllahuKhayran
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas (radiyallaahu-anhumaa):
The Prophet (PBUH) said, “The most hated persons to Allah (SWT) are three:
(1) A
person who deviates from the right conduct, i.e., an evil doer, in the
Haram (sanctuaries of Mecca and Medina);
(2) a person who seeks that the
traditions of the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance, should remain in
Islam
(3) and a person who seeks to shed somebody’s blood without any
right.”
[Saheeh Al-Bukhaari, Hadeeth Number 21, Vol 9]

Announcement:
In a ground-breaking first for British television, this three-part series presented by Rageh Omaar charts the life of Muhammad, a man who - for the billion and half Muslims across the globe - is the messenger and final prophet of God.
In a journey that is both literal and historical and beginning in Muhammad's birthplace of Mecca, Omaar investigates the Arabia Muhammad was born into - a world of tribal loyalties and polytheistic religion.
Drawing on the expertise and comment of some of the world's leading academics and commentators on Islam, the programme examines Muhammad's first marriage to Khadijah and how he received the first of the revelations that had such a profound effect both on his life, and on the lives of those closest to him.
Date of broadcast: BBC 2 (and BBC HD) 9:00 PM, Monday 11th July 2011

Are you sitting at home, bored with nothing to do? Why not visit the Science musuem in London and have a look at the special exhibition by 1001 Inventions?
1001 Inventions is a global educational initiative that promotes awareness of the scientific and cultural achievements of Muslim civilisation, during the thousand year period from the 7th century onwards, and how those contributions helped build the foundations of our modern world.
The exibition opened in mid January and closes on the 25th April.
Exhibits include numerous electronic interactives, a reproduction of a 9th century flying device and a five-metre high replica of the “Elephant Clock”. The exhibition features more than sixty exhibits and a large screen displaying a mini-movie starring Oscar-winning actor Ben Kingsley as Al-Jazari, inventor of the fabled Elephant Clock. Find out more at the exhibition website.
Here is the short promotional clip...
Entry is free for both children and adults.
The devastating 7.0 magnitude earthquake has left the people of Haiti devastated and communications with the country remain weak. As with many disasters of this kind, information is scant at this stage as casualties and damage cannot yet be estimated. The outlook remains bleak.

Assalamu-Alaikum,
This is a late announcement of a Lecture that will take place on Salah tomorrow at Holborn Muslim Community Association - starting 6:30pm uptil Isha Jammat.
The lecture will be on The Virtues of Salah (and not how to pray) but there will be a questions and answers time at the end of the lecturer for any type of questions you may have.
The lecture will be conducted by brother Saim Alom, who co-leads prayers at the mosque.
Due to the size of the venue - this particular lecture is for brothers only. In future this will hopefully change as they are hoping to expand this venue insha-Allah.
The address is as follows....
Holborn Muslim Community Association
33 Brookes Court, Baldwin Garden, London, England EC1N 7RR
