On Saturday, March 21st, the children of our community had a great time attending our Kids Eid Al Fitr Party. After enjoying bouncy castles and slides for hours, they left the venue with goodie bags, balloons and big smiles. Many of them also ended up looking more colorful in the hands of our talented face painting and henna volunteers. May Allah swt reward all our young volunteers for their service and reunite us again for celebrating many more Eids.

Thanks to Lieutenant Governor Aylward for her continued support!

In 2022, The United Nations designated March 15 as the International Day to Combat Islamophobia.

Yesterday, today and every day, we say no to hate and discrimination.

Government House lit up green last night, and will again tonight as a symbol of support and solidarity with Muslims in Newfoundland and Labrador and across Canada.

In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Assalamu’ Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

MANAL is pleased to convey Eid greetings to all members of the community.

It is with a heavy heart that we see the passing of Ramadan, the month of moral and spiritual uplift, mercy and endless blessings, but at the same time we are grateful to Allah (SWT) for enabling us to experience this Ramadan through prayers and good deeds, and hope to experience many more Ramadans in the future Insha'Allah.

The successful completion of the holy month of Ramadan and Eid celebrations remind believers about the values of Gratitude (Shukr), Ihsan (compassion and excellence), and Sincerity (Khushu). These three living principles shape a believer’s character and impact the world around him/her. Gratitude grounds the heart in contentment and resilience, Ihsan elevates our dealings with kindness, justice, and excellence, and Sincerity purifies our intentions so that our actions carry lasting meaning. When these values are lived together, they nurture inner peace, strengthen relationships, build trust in communities, and bring barakah into our efforts. By embodying these timeless values in our daily lives, we do not only draw closer to Allah (SWT), but we also become a source of goodness, healing, and positive change in the current turbulent world.

We would like to share important information with our community as part of Eid celebrations.

For those who have not yet paid, Zakatul Fitr is $20 per person and must be paid BEFORE the Eid prayer. You can pay your Zakatul Fitr through the donation boxes/Square systems located at the mosque or through a member of the MANAL Executive Committee.

The first day of Eid al-Fitr Insha'Allah will take place on Friday March 20th.

There will be two Eid prayers - the first Eid prayer will start at 7:15AM and the second prayer at 8:45AM. Both prayers will be held at Suleman Dawood Masjid (135 Torbay Road, St. John’s).

There will be NO Eid prayer at the Masjid Al-Noor (430 Logy Bay Road).

When you come for the Eid prayer, please make sure that you make Wudu at home, and park in the designated parking area as per directions provided by MANAL volunteers.

MANAL would like to thank all the volunteers who help us maintain the Mosque and manage MANAL’s operational activities throughout the year and especially during the holy month of Ramadan.

May Allah (SWT) bless our community and the whole Muslim ummah with a happy and peaceful Eid.

Eid Mubarak

Jazakum Allahu Khairun,

MANAL Executive Committee

As per the request of the Muslim Association of Newfoundland and Labrador, our Government House is lit in green on the first night of Ramadan 2026. Ramadan Mubarak everyone.

Tonight marks the beginning of the month-long observance of Ramadan for Muslims around the world, and here in our province.

It is a time of prayer, reflection, and fasting which will conclude with Eid al-Fitr, the “Holiday of Breaking the Fast”.

Tonight we will light Government House in green to recognize the beginning of Ramadan.

To members of Muslim communities in Newfoundland and Labrador, we wish each of you Ramadan Mubarak, a Blessed Ramadan.
