Dear brothers and sisters,
according to the information
that we received,
in behalf of Islamic mosque and the religious
institute,
I would like to announce
that
Jum'ah prayer tomorrow will be canceled
according to the
serious matter that we have right now
because
of corona,
virus.
And when we look at the the issue,
it's according to the book of Allah and
the sunnah of Rasulillah
sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala taught
us in the Quran.
You have to be very careful with any
matter around us. And the prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam
explained about
the plague,
the ta'un.
It's a punishment
from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala that he sent
down into the children of Israel
or the previous nations
before prophet Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasalam. And he
mentioned, if you heard about it in any
land, it's not permissible
for anyone
to enter into this land.
And on the other hand,
if you heard about
the plague
or the sickness
in any place,
it's not allowed to run away from this
place. Stay in the place
until Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala exchange the situation
and it cured people.
And the prophet Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasallam
used to tell the Mu'azin
in the time of heavy rain
or cold weather
or the month
to stay home and pray home.
And also,
prophet Muhammad,
when Sayeedna Abdullah Abbas
mentioned for the the
to tell people to stay home and to
pray home in the heavy rain. And some
companions
were rejected his
decision. And he looked at them and he
said, the one the one who is much
better than me and you, he used to
do it. And he referred to prophet Muhammad
salallahu alaihi wa sallam and to pray at
home when we have any hardship
time.
According
to all these,
evidence and, proofs from the Quran and the
the sunnah of Rasulullah, his sallam.
Our Jum'ah prayer tomorrow
will be canceled,
and we will wait for any new updates
from the health department
in Michigan,
in state of Michigan inshallah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
And the masjid will be locked
for
any new update. It could be 1 week.
It could be 2 weeks.
Allah only knows best and just we need
our brothers and sisters. It might be a
good opportunity for all of us to wake
up and to go back to our Lord
to ask Allah
to cure
our ourselves and our our family members, our
brothers and sisters
from this illness.
And it might be a good idea like
prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Salam mentioned
in in this time
that people will
fix the relation with Allah.
We need to resolve
our problems with Allah.
And Allah
mentioned
we do not send our uh-uh signs
except to wake people up
from
the the the situation that they have and
this is a good opportunity for all of
us
to,
come down and rely on our Lord
and deal with the cleanliness
as much as we can. Doing we do
ablution
and
clean ourselves
and often time
it will be a big help for all
of us to pass the hard situation that
we have right now. May Allah
protect all of us and may Allah
help all of us to stay firm in
our religion. I know some people might reject
the decision, but we try to do our
best to save ourselves and our community
in West Michigan.
