Maximizing the Last Days of Ramadan

Alhamdulillah, let’s make the last 10 nights of Ramadan count! Your time and generosity fuels MCA— whether it’s a heartwarming iftar, an enriching class, or a place for spiritual growth, none of this happens without you.

Maximize your worship: Free up as much time as possible in the evenings for prayer, Qur’an, and duah. 📿

Maximize your giving & Automate your donations: Give a little every night! Just click this link to get started.

Maximize your legacy: With support, MCA can bring a dream to life—MCA 3.0, a space designed to meet the needs of our youth and elders.

It could be Laylat ul Qadr tonight! That’s 30,416 days × 700 reward 🤯 SubhanAllah! View workshop in video, and see slides here.

Now is the time to give! You can help sustain the Ramadan programs and services that benefit thousands.

May Allah (SWT) accept our fasting, worship, and sacrifices in these blessed nights, grant us Laylatul Qadr, free us from the Fire, and bless our community, allowing us to make the most of this sacred month. Ameen!🤲
