For the dinner table

Ramadan is meant to change how we live beyond the month itself. The khateeb encouraged fasting six days of Shawwal and continuing prayer, Quran reading, and other good deeds. Even a small daily practice can keep our connection with Allah strong. We should also remain kind to our families and remember Muslims facing hardship around the world.

  3. How can our family remember and help Muslims around the world?
