🌙 ASR & ISHA IQAMAH TIME UPDATE 🕌 Assalamu Alaikum beloved brothers and sisters, 📢 Starting tomorrow, Monday | October 5, 2026 | Rabi’ Al-Thani 24, 1448 AH 🌅 Asr Iqamah: 4:30 PM 🌃 Isha Iqamah: 8:00 PM, Insha’Allah. Let us make a sincere effort to pray Asr and Isha in congregation (Jama’ah) at the masjid and encourage our families, children, and brothers and sisters to join us. 📖 Allah (SWT) says: ﴿حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَىٰ وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِ قَانِتِينَ﴾ “Guard strictly the prayers, especially the middle prayer, and stand before Allah devoutly obedient." - (Qur’an 2:238) The majority of scholars explain “the middle prayer” (الصلاة الوسطى) as Asr prayer. 📜 The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: «مَنْ تَرَكَ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ» “Whoever misses the Asr prayer, his deeds are lost.” - (Sahih al-Bukhari) ⚠️ This is a powerful reminder not to allow work, school, errands, or anything else to cause us to miss Asr. 📜 The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ also said: «مَنْ صَلَّى الْبَرْدَيْنِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ» (الفجر والعصر) “Whoever prays the two cool prayers will enter Paradise.” - The two cool prayers are Fajr and Asr. - (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) 📜 The Prophet ﷺ also told us that angels come together at the time of Fajr and Asr, and they report to Allah about His servants. «يَتَعَاقَبُونَ فِيكُمْ مَلَائِكَةٌ بِاللَّيْلِ وَمَلَائِكَةٌ بِالنَّهَارِ، وَيَجْتَمِعُونَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ وَصَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ» “Angels take turns among you, angels by night and angels by day, and they meet together at Fajr and Asr.” - (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) 📜 The Prophet Muhammad also ﷺ said: «لَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِي الْعَتَمَةِ وَالصُّبْحِ لَأَتَوْهُمَا وَلَوْ حَبْوًا» - (العشاء والفجر) “If they knew the reward of Isha and Fajr, they would come to them even if they had to crawl." - (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) 🌙 Isha in congregation carries an enormous reward. 📜 The Prophet ﷺ said: «مَنْ صَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَامَ نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ» “Whoever prays Isha in congregation, it is as if he spent half the night in prayer.” (Sahih Muslim) «وَمَنْ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ فَكَأَنَّمَا صَلَّى اللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ» “And whoever prays Fajr in congregation, it is as if he spent the entire night in prayer.” (Sahih Muslim) 📜 The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: «صَلَاةُ الْجَمَاعَةِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَذِّ بِسَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ دَرَجَةً» “Prayer in congregation is twenty-seven times more virtuous than praying alone.” (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) 🕌 Every step you take toward the masjid is an opportunity for reward. 📜 The Prophet ﷺ said: «مَنْ غَدَا إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَاحَ، أَعَدَّ اللَّهُ لَهُ نُزُلَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ كُلَّمَا غَدَا أَوْ رَاحَ» “Whoever goes to the masjid in the morning or evening, Allah prepares for him a place in Paradise whenever he goes in the morning or evening.” - (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) Brothers and sisters, let’s not miss these opportunities. 🌅 Come for Asr. 🌃 Come for Isha. 🕌 Pray with your brothers and sisters every salah in jama't. ❤️ Bring your children and families. 🌙 Make the masjid a regular part of your day. Sometimes the greatest change in our lives begins with simply answering the call to prayer and taking that first step toward the masjid. May Allah make us among those who guard their prayers, love the masjid, attend the prayers in congregation, and remain steadfast until we meet Him. May Allah grant us the reward of Asr and Isha, bless our families, strengthen our faith, and gather us all in Al-Firdaws Al-A‘la. Ameen. 🤲🏻 جعلنا الله وإياكم من المحافظين على الصلوات، المقيمين لها في أوقاتها، والمحافظين على صلاة الجماعة، ومحبي بيوت الله وروّادها، وثبّتنا على طاعته حتى نلقاه، وجمعنا جميعًا في الفردوس الأعلى. اللهم آمين 🤲🏻🤲🏻 🗓️ Download the complete October 2026 Prayer Schedule from here👇🏻 🔗 https://ichla.org/calendar 🕌 See you at the masjid, Insha’Allah!
