All praises be to Allah swt, Lord of the Universe. Peace & Blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad (S), his family, his companions, to the teachers that are present and that have passed on.

Assalaamualaikum ,

We hope you are in the best of health and iman.

Alhamdulillah. It is the last day of the Islamic Year 1435H. Maghrib tonight we welcome the new Islamic Year 1436H and so expect all the Mosques in Singapore to be filled up, insyallah.

In last week's newsletter, we ask you to reflect on the past year. So hopefully you have done it despite your hectic schedules.

Download these doas.

Doas for the End of the Year and Doa for the New Year.

--------

Since it is the New Year, our portal have also gone through some changes. As we realised we need to move on in times and adopt new interfaces. These changes may not be comfortable to you as you may be confused on where to go and where are the buttons or links?

New Menu system

To find the new menus, click on the icon shown above.

A long list of menu will appear on the left.

More prominent banners

With more than 70-100 events featured in this portal, it does take some effort to stand out.

Instead of just featuring one banner at a time, 2 banners as shown above will appear.

Featured Services section

Featured Services like Aqiqah or Hajj E Badal have also been shifted. Previously on the left of the screen, now you have to scroll down the Main Page and view the services.

----------------------

This will definitely take a while even for ourself to adapt. But they say the more you visit us, the more you are aware of how things works.

So read on

ILM LIVE

If you are born a Muslim, your father would have said these words as he azan in your ears and if you are convert these are among the first words that you will say in front of the Ustaz or Imam and the witnesses on that day. And for most of us we say these at least 9 times per day in our prayers.

What does the "Syahadah" means? 

Is it just merely saying it out or is there a deeper meaning behind these words. "I bear witness that there is no God except for Allah swt and Muhammad saw is the Messenger of Allah swt;

Let's get Ustaz Noor Deros to break it down and share with us the knowledge behind the Syahadah. 

This talk will be in English. 

Who is Ustaz Noor Deros?

He is a graduate of Madrasah Al-Aljunied Al-Islamiah, Singapore and had furthered his studies at Al-Azhar University with a Bachelor of Arts, Islamic Creed & Philosophy. He is also an ex-President of PERKEMAS (Singapore Student Assembly in Cairo) for 2 years, 2006-2007. 
Currently running his own organisation - Syajarah and freelancing with organisations like HCS and more.

New Featured Event

If you are not heading to the mosque this evening, head down to SMUMS Official Launch and Opening of their Islamic Awareness Week. Details see poster.

Featured Event

Organised by Qiswah, 'Stitching Lives' will reach out to all to foster inter-racial and inter-religious tolerance and harmony within our shared community

Named Stitching Lives to depict the act of helping to stitch back the lives of those uprooted and torn apart from their families and homes in the war-torn regions of Syria and Palestine, Stitching Lives is designed to provide an outlet for Singaporeans to help the innocents suffering as a result of the conflicts in war-torn Syria and Palestine.

The event will revolve around a cross-stitch mass-sewing event that will be accessible to all, without prejudice to race, religion age or gender. Participants will stitch a simple personalised message in a cross-stitch format (sewing kits will be provided). These personalised messages will share a theme of peace and hope of a better future, and will be shared amongst participants at the event.

These messages will share a similar theme of how the care and concern shared amongst Singaporeans will cross oceans and borders, and give hope to Syrian and Palestinian refugees. The target is that this simple gesture and sewing event will give birth to 5000 blankets that will provide warmth and help save lives during the harsh winter months. 

Come and show your support to this humanitarian cause.

A night of spiritual expression with Aashiq Al Rasul

Aashiq al-Rasul is one of Britain's most celebrated Nasheed group. Specialising in contemporary Islamic music, the group mixes contemporary tunes with classical elements to form a sound all their own. Upbeat and catchy, the band dives into their repertoire of songs with vigour and energy, with strong fast beats driven by a circle of drums and percussion instruments. Yet, when the moment calls for it, this versatile band has the magical ability to take things down a notch and let their remarkable singing voices take centre-stage in acapella sessions.

The group's music embraces the medium of devotional music with a repertoire of classical Qasidas, Hamds, Naats Qawwali and modern Nasheeds (all Muslim devotional genres). They fuse this repertoire with rhythms that are a fusion of beats from the Indo-Subcontinent, Middle East, Africa and the Caribbean. Their lyrics carry a mix of English, Arabic, Urdu, Punjabi and French languages.

Now into their 15th year of performing, Aashiq al-Rasul has produced ten albums over the years, as well as been featured in compilations such as Stop The War Coalition and Yusuf Islam's Mountain of Light. Their latest album, Pilgrim, is described as “cosmic journey through life”.

Aashiq al-Rasul has toured throughout the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Canada, USA, Algeria, Caribbean and Malaysia. They have also performed at several prestigious music festivals including the Glastonbury Music Festival. Their performances has often left audiences mesmerised by its spiritual force.

Over the years, the group have performed with the Sabri Brothers, Sami Yusuf, Yusuf Islam, Zain Bhika, Muhammad Al-Husayan, Noor, Outlandish, 786, SHAAM, Khaleel Muhammad, Nazeel Azmi, Hamza Robertson and many others. They also assisted RAIHAN (Malaysia) in producing its popular Allahu track, and provided backing vocals for Zain Bhika's “Wedding Song”.
