In Loving Memory of Rayaan Dogar 🤍

Our community continues to mourn the heartbreaking loss of Rayaan Dogar, whose sincerity, leadership, and dedication left a lasting impact on the MYG. As MYG President, he served with compassion and worked tirelessly to create a welcoming space for our youth.

One of the most meaningful ways we can honor his legacy is by supporting the programs he cared so deeply about. Your donation to the MYG will help continue the work Rayaan was passionate about and, insha’Allah, serve as an ongoing source of reward for him.

We ask Allah (SWT) to envelop Rayaan in His infinite mercy, grant him Jannat al-Firdaws, and make every life he touched and every act of service he inspired a source of continuous reward. Ameen.

Donate in Rayaan’s honor:

🌟 Become a Guardian of Your Masjid

Every time the lights turn on, the carpets are cleaned, the bathrooms are maintained, the classrooms are prepared, and our doors are opened to welcome the community—there are real operational costs that keep ISOC running every single day.

Your monthly contribution can be a beautiful Sadaqah Jariyah—helping cover:
💡 Utilities and electricity
🧹 Custodial and cleaning services
🏢 Facility maintenance and repairs
📚 Community programs and services
🕌 The daily operations that keep our masjid thriving

No amount is too small when given consistently. The Prophet SAW said: “The most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are consistent, even if they are small.”

Join hundreds of others who have committed to supporting ISOC month after month and become a Guardian of your masjid today.

Assalam Alykum good people. It is currently the best time of the week to make Duaa. Let's try to detach ourselves from our busy lives for 10-30 minutes to turn to Allah in prayer. 

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Friday is twelve hours in which there is no Muslim slave who asks Allah (SWT) for something but He will give it to him, so seek it in the last hour after 'Asr."

‎عنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ سَاعَةً لاَ يُوجَدُ فِيهَا عَبْدٌ مُسْلِمٌ يَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ شَيْئًا إِلاَّ آتَاهُ إِيَّاهُ فَالْتَمِسُوهَا آخِرَ سَاعَةٍ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
