In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. All praises is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds - The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, Sovereign of the Day of Recompose. It is You we worship and You we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path - the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked (Your) anger or of those who are astray.
Ameen.
COVID-19 & Eidulfitri this year.
We hope you are in the best of health, iman and your family are safe from COVID-19 and other health issues. We hope you are having a great time celebrating Eid with your family.
This year the whole world celebrates Ramadan and Eidulfitri very differently. Though we may not be able to enter the mosques and visit our elders and relatives, the alternatives have been created to continue the spirit of both occasions. Alhamdulillah.
Allahuakhbar, Allahuakhbar, Allahuakhbar. Allah swt is the greatest and He knows what we don't know. There is hikmah in every difficulty and tests that He sent to us and it is us who needs to learn to navigate the challenges and adopt to the changes that is happening.
For those who are affected greatly by the Covid, we hope you stay strong and make lots of dua and take necessary actions to overcome your adversities. If you do need help and support, do seek help. Please write in to us and we'll see if we can help, else we can always point to another organisation to help.
Forgive us and make Doa..
On behalf of teams behind our organisations we seek your forgiveness in this bless month of Syawal and we hope you continue making dua for us too. We hope that whatever ibadah that we have done is accepted by Allah swt. Insyallah.
Updates:
Events
As we all know physical events or classes are not allowed to be conducted till further notice. Hence we are planning and already promoting for various Online and Webinar classes ( Free and Paid ). Masjids are also running such sessions, please support them too. Please visit www.islamicevents.sg to see the whole list of events.
QuranReading.sg
Teachers are still not be able to come to houses to teach Quran during this COVID period even after Circuit breaker is lifted after 2nd June 2020. We predict that this situation may take about 2 years for teachers to be allowed to enter the students homes.
Why? Although the situation may ease here in our country, it may not be same overseas. Hence movement is still limited and prevention of widespread disease takes priority.
We will be launching the online Quran classes with new package prices in the next 2-3 weeks for new students.
We have been getting feedback from teachers that it is difficult to get students below 10 years old to stay focus on learning via Zoom, Whatsapp or Google meet. The packages will be designed to focus on Adults first.
Teachers too need to be retrained and fortunately MUIS have come out with such courses to guide teachers to be proficiently online.
FYI. Current students are already moved to online lessons and reduction of fees have been implemented. This maybe the new Norm for now.
Grave Cleaning Services:
In the month of Ramadan, we have offered the discounted price for this service. For those whom have taken it up, our teams will be starting to look into the locations of the graves and will be assigning the cleaning schedules by BLOCK plot. The cleaning dates will be announced soon. Insyallah.
Qurban
Insyallah, for this year we are able to perform Ibadah Qurban in 8 countries.
The countries are:
1) Indonesia ( 3 locations - Semarang, Banyuwangi & Bandung )
2) Kenya
3) Australia ( if you wish to receive the meat )
4) Malaysia
5) India
6) Cambodia
7) Myanmar
8) Sri Lanka
Details are still being firmed up by the ground operaters. Insyallah more information will be shared by us in this coming week.

We are also in the mids of getting a few more infaq projects up for the next 2 months. Among them are the Project Bore Hole in Kenya and restarting of the Cambodia Well projects. Keep in tune with our Infaq updates on Fridays.
