IMPORTANT Coronavirus & Princeton Muslim Life Notice

Assalam'alaykum beloved community, 

I pray that this note reaches you all in a state of peace and good health. 

I'm writing with the unfortunate news that the university is canceling all public and social gatherings at Princeton University in an effort to keep the community safe at a time when the Coronavirus is spreading. 

As such, this means that jummah prayers at Princeton University are canceled starting this week until further notice. If you are elderly or immunocompromised, it is advisable that you don't go to jummah or other large gatherings until the threat of the virus decreases. If you are going to jummah, we recommend going to any of the nearby Mosques and using sensible precautions. 

This also means that our public lectures will be canceled for the rest of the semester. 

We will try to move what we can to Zoom - an online platform for video conferencing. 

Stay tuned for other MLP programming that we may be able to move online otherwise assume that it is canceled. 

I realize this news will cause disruption to the flow of our community and our sense of togetherness. It's natural to be saddened or worried upon receiving this e-mail. I am personally saddened that the opportunities to see your bright faces and to have in-person conversations will be so limited for the foreseeable future. But, please know that I'm around and you can reach out to me during any time of need or otherwise - just send me an e-mail and we'll find a way to connect online. 

As soon as it is safe for our communities to once again be in communion, we'll let you know and be happy to reopen our doors! In the meantime, take good care of yourselves, be safe, and keep each other in your prayers. 

With much love and affection. 

fe aman Allah,

Imam Sohaib
