Ramadan Announcement

The commencement of Ramadan will be announced on Tuesday 15th May 2018 between Asr and Maghrib.
Although the Clonskeagh Mosque has announced the 1st day of Ramadan based on astronmical calculations on Wednesday 16th May 2018 , all other Mosques and Islamic Centres in Ireland will announce Ramadan according to the Moon-sighting.

Therefore we will announce Ramadan only if a Muslim majority country makes an announcement on 29th Shabaan (Tuesday 15th May 2018 at 7PM) for Ramadan. If this does not happen 30 days of Shabaan will be completed according to the Sunnah.

UPDATE:

There has been no positive moon-sighting in any Muslim majority country and neither in Ireland or in Europe. Therefore tomorrow is 30 of Shabaan as per Sunnah of The Holy Prophet ﷺ.

First day of Ramadan in Ireland is
Thursday 17 May 2018

We wish you a very blessed Ramadan.

Ramadan Kareem!

A Statement circulating on Whatsapp signed by prominent Imams and Muslim figures in Ireland:

“Assalamu Alaikum wr wb
Dear Muslim brothers and Sisters in Ireland.

There has been no positive sighting of the moon tonight in any Muslim majority country and neither here in Ireland or Europe. Therefore tomorrow is 30 Shabaan as per Sunnah of The Holy Prophet ﷺ.

An Important Reminder by the Shaykh on the commencement of the Blessed Month of Ramadan.

On the occasion of St. Patrick’s Day, Ireland’s national day, we wish everyone a very blessed St Patrick’s Day.

On #StPatricksDay we all celebrate Irishness and Ireland . Isn’t it amazing that we celebrate Irishness and Ireland on a day that is associated with an Immigrant who was not Irish but made Ireland his home and contributed positively to the Society?

#Ireland is truly a country of #céadmílefáilte (a hundred thousand welcomes)! It welcomed a non-Irish Immigrant in a unique way that it now celebrates the day of that special Immigrant as its National Day !

Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh go léir !

Is bealach dóchais agus inspioráide é Naomh Pádraig do gach imirceach. Is é ceiliúradh an lae inniu ná caitheamh na héagsúlachta.
