The Quran is full of stories.

Not for entertainment. Not for history lessons.

But because stories help you see yourself.

You see your emotions, struggles, and ambitions reflected in the lives of others, and you’re given a new perspective.

Join us to reflect on how these stories can guide our everyday lives.
Can't wait to see you there! Free pizza would be provided. 🍕

The Greatest Days of the Year Are Here
The First 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah

WHY THESE DAYS ARE SPECIAL

• The month of Hajj
• A sacred month — good deeds and sins are multiplied
• The end of the Islamic year — a time for reflection
• The days of Eid al-Adha and Qurbani fall within them
• These are the days where fasting, prayer, charity, and pilgrimage are all combined together

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "There are no days on earth where good deeds are more beloved to Allah than these 10 days.”

WHAT TO DO

🤲 Make Dua — Pray as if you are standing on the Day of Judgement. Pour your heart out in your own language. Ask Allah for forgiveness, guidance, healing, success, Jannah — ask for whatever your heart needs.

🌙 Fast — Especially the Day of Arafah. The Prophet ﷺ said fasting it expiates the sins of the previous and coming year.

📖 Increase in Worship — Pray your salah on time, read Quran, make dhikr, and spend more time remembering Allah.

🔁 Remember Allah Often — Especially say:
Allahu Akbar
Alhamdulillah
La ilaha illallah

💰 Give Charity — Give zakat and sadaqah, even if it is small. Every act of generosity is beloved to Allah.

✂️ Sacrifice Something You Love — Your time, your money, your sleep, a bad habit. Ask yourself: 'what am I willing to give up for Allah?'

🎯 Set One Intention — One thing to start. One thing to stop.

💭 Reflect — The past 12 months:
Am I a better Muslim than I was last year?

REMEMBER

“You will never reach righteousness until you spend from the things that you love.”
Quran 3:92

Don’t let these days pass while you sleep.
When others are heedless — you wake up.

What do you do when it feels like no-one understands you?

When motivation dips and everything feels too much?

Surah Duha was revealed in a moment like that.

It speaks to people who feel worn down.

This session is about reassurance, not pressure.

About finding hope without pretending everything is fine.

You don’t want to miss this one.

Can't wait to see you there Inshallah! Free pizza would be provided. 🍕
