Ramadan Mubarak to all!
Today ushers in the holy month of Ramadan for Muslim communities in Canada and around the world. A month of fasting, prayer, personal introspection and empathy with those less fortunate.
In light of the ongoing pandemic and the surge of cases we are currently experiencing, it is important that we prioritize the health and safety of our communities while we observe a Ramadan that is spiritually uplifting.
Created in consultation with Imams, mosque administrators, community leaders, medical and public health professionals, the Canadian Muslim COVID-19 Task Force (CMCTF) has launched a first of its kind tailored, faith-informed, and evidence-based guideline to ensure that Muslims across Canada can safely care for themselves, their families, communities, and houses of worship this Ramadan.
I urge you all to please consult the complete guidelines at cmcovidtf.com/guidelines
May this Ramadan be as bright as ever
