Bangladesh Samity Melbourne hosted Iftar Party on Saturday, 20th September (Change of Venue)
Dear respected community members,
The holy month of Ramadan 1429(H) has begun with promises of blessings, forgiveness and salvation from Allah. This is the month of revelation to earth of the holy Quran, and of attaining spiritual excellence and self-purification in personal and social life through fasting, self-restraint and other religious rituals. Fasting is the third pillar of Islam and compulsory for all physically able and mentally sound adult Muslims. Devotees refrain from food, drink, smoke and all sorts of physical gratification during day hours. It was on Lailat-ul-Qadr in this month that the holy Quran was revealed to guide mankind along the right path.
As the holy month of Ramadan begins, Bangladesh Samity Melbourne takes the privilege to announce its annual Iftar party:
Venue: Ashburton Library Hall, 154 High Street, Ashburton, VIC 3147
(Melway Ref # 60 C 10)
Date: Saturday, 20th September 2008
Time: Arrival at 5:30 pm for Iftar/prayer at 6:16 pm, followed by dinner
On behalf of Bangladesh Samity executive committee members, we invite you all to come along and join in the sombre religious gathering and have Iftar and dinner with your fellow community members.
Dear fellow community members, Ramadan is an occasion for us to strengthen family and community ties and share Allah’s gifts with those in need. Let us pray and hope that as the holy and cherished month begins, we will witness the beginning of a new era of peace and tolerance around the globe. May the holy month make all to exercise self-restraint and seek divine blessings by working for welfare of all.
Ramadan Mubarak!
Sincerely yours,
Jalal (Kumu) Ahmed Golam Sarwar
