Muslims look forward to the holy month of Ramadan. Ramadan is a month filled with various types of worship; including prayers, giving charity, fasting and bonding with fellow Muslims.
Al Furqan has been organising Taraweeh prayers (Night prayers) since its inception during the whole month of Ramadan. Various recites have been invited since then to lead the night prayers. The centre has been very busy during this month with over 1000 people coming on a daily basis.
The centre has also provided Iftar (dinner) for all those who have been fasting during the whole month for the duration of the whole month. The Trust has also received various donations towards this charitable cause. Many homeless people in the borough have also benefitted from these dinners during the whole month of Ramadan where they are invited to eat.
The Trustees have also invited Local MP’s, the local mayor and councillors to take part in the Iftar dinners, to strengthen cohesion and build ties with the local community.
