NO Jummah Online Gathering this Week
July 3, 2020
Assalam'alaykum beloved community,
Assalam'alaykum beloved community,
I pray that this note reaches you in a state of peace and good health.
As you may know, Princeton University has asked most of its students to return home for the rest of the semester and has canceled on campus events and programs in an effort to prevent the corona virus from spreading. As such, jummah prayers and all other on campus MLP programming has been canceled for the semester and until further notice.
However, we are going to try our very best to maintain and sustain an online presence to give the community a sense of togetherness and to continue to offer spiritual care.
Today, and insha'Allah every Friday, we're offering an online gathering over zoom starting at 1 PM with Qur'an Recitation, Jummah Advice by Imam Sohaib, and a Dua' from a beloved sister. This will be followed by a Meet and Greet. The links for joining us on zoom at 1 PM and for the meet and greet may change weekly. Please join the email list for access to links and updates.
Please remember that this does not take the place of jummah prayers which we are all exempt from as long as the masajid remain closed due to health concerns. So, after the online gathering you will pray 4 rakats of dhur prayer by yourself or with folks in your home. It is a blessed day of Friday so make sure to follow the sunnah of taking a bath, wearing your nice clothes and musk, sending abundant salawaat upon the Prophet (s), reciting surah al Kahf, and meeting the people of your home and others with especially good cheer.
We will record and share this online gathering for the benefit of those who can't join at 1 PM. Please remember that Friday is a sacred and joyous day for Muslims even when we can't meet for the prayer. Spend the day reciting Qur'an, sending blessings on our master Muhammad (s), and offering extra prayers as well as charity.
Jummah mubarak!
fe aman Allah,
Sohaib

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
