To all our dear brothers and sisters,

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu:

Islam teaches us to show kindness without discrimination and to respect all cultures and beliefs. The purpose of the Islamic Cultural Center Osaka is to promote a true understanding of Islam. It provides a place of worship for Muslim men and women from Japan and other countries who are visiting or living in Osaka, especially those who are studying at Osaka University or visiting the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).

In addition to the prayers, there are weekly lectures and classes for adults and children every Saturday which you are all welcome to attend. Please join us for the sake of Allah. (For details, see below)

Ramadan is approaching!

TTo know exactly the beginning of our blessed month of Ramadan 1428 A.H., please check this website on Monday, September 1st, 2008 after 10:00 p.m. The first taroweeh prayers will be on the following evening, after the isha prayer.

Narrated Abdullah bin Umar : Allah's Apostle mentioned Ramadan and said, "Do not fast unless you see the crescent (of Ramadan), and do not give up fasting till you see the crescent (of Shawwal), but if the sky is overcast (if you cannot see it), then act on estimation (i.e. count Sha'baan as 30 days)." (Sahih Bukhari)

Congregational Prayers at the Center
In Shaa ALLAH, cars will be provided to pick thoses brothers and sisters who want to offer their Jumma prayer at the mosque. Because of the necessity to attend classes, some brothers asked to strictly fix the timing to and from the mosque and also to provide cars at different places. So, the cars arrangement will be as follows:
 
Place (1): In front of prayer room of Suita campus.
 
Place (2): In front of International Students Center (ISC).
 
Leaving Time: Cars will leave from Osaka University (Suita campus) exactly at PM 12:05.
 
Return Time: Cars will leave from the Mosque exactly at PM 12:45.
 
If any brothers/sisters need cars at another place or have any other suggestion, please advise us.
 

An Important New Project for Our Mosque

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Alhamdulillah, our community is growing, and we need to reform the mosque by removing the walls on the second floor to make a larger place for prayer. We depend on Allah and are in need of your generous donations to cover the running expenses of the Center and insha'Allah, to complete this important new project, which will cost about 1.5 million yen. In addition, the land next door to our Center is for sale. This will expand our land by 50%and make it possible to build the first purpose built mosque in Osaka, insha'allah.

Please send your donations to this project to:

  • Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. 0005, Semba Chuo Branch 521, Account 1332958
  • Or: P O Account 14090 34979761
May Allah grow the reward for your generosity in Paradise . Amen

 

May Allah accept our efforts to establish Islam in Japan and grant us success.
