Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Jarus(m): 12:30am On Aug 21, 2009 |
Assalaamu alaikum my brothers and sisters, We thank Allah for making us witness yet another Ramadan and pray He makes it easy for us to maximize the benefit therein. I'm mooting the idea of having Nairalanders iftaar for those of us in Lagos, although it's a pity that most of the active contributors here are not Lagos residents. I'm very serious and will inshaAllah foot the bill. At least I know oyb,Abuzola,fellis,dominique and a few new or fringe Muslim Nairalanders are Lagos-based. Javalove is also usually in and out of Lagos. This will also provide an opportunity to meet other Muslim Nairalanders face to face. DATE :Let's suggest a date. But I think Friday or Saturday evening will be better. TIME: Iftaar time is of course around 7pm but convergence can start from 6pm VENUE: Option 1-Any eatery can be selected, but I'll suggest Mama Cass in VI,given its spaciousness. Option 2: I am ready to host everybody at my Ajah apartment, but Ajah is somehow far, and the heavy traffic obstacle on people's way home. So any idea on making this a reality? And who is interested? NB: Since this topic has been 'home-paged', let us interprete some Islamic terms used here to the non-Muslims who may just be curious. Iftaar means breaking of fast. Monghrib is sunset salat(prayer). 1ST EDITION - 2009: PAGES 1-8 2ND EDITION - 2010: PAGES 8-18 3RD EDITION - 2011: PAGES 18 - Turn to page 21 for Mainland edition. 4TH EDITION - 2012: Page 23 5TH EDITION - 2013: Page 39 Planning has commenced NB: Please go to page 44 for current edition, SEASON 5. 7 Likes |

Re: Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Lagosboy: 3:18pm On Aug 22, 2009 |
See as me lagosboy no go fit attend lagos event na wah o. Jarus good initiative and may Allah strengthen the bond between us all and use us to acheive great things for islam and make us a great benefit to the muslims and not a liability to islam. Realy wish it was a time i was on holiday to naija. Abuzola my person make sure u go there o! VI to agege no be lagos to abuja nah. Although i am not in Lagos, Jarus if most of the people going will be from the mainland would it make sense if i sugest you guys could find a place on the mainland and where you could pray maghrib and then pounce on the food to start the feast. 2 Likes |

Re: Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Jarus(m): 6:02pm On Aug 22, 2009 |
Ibrodex, welcome. @alimat2, we've not fixed date and time. Is next week Friday or Saturday(Ramadan 7 or 8 ) evening okay? Is Mamacass restaurant @ Ajose Adeogun street,VI, okay? There is a mosque just opposite, inside Zenon House, wia we can say our moghrib. Suggestions are welcomed |

Re: Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Nobody: 7:24pm On Aug 22, 2009 |
Salamualaikum everyone Ramadan Kareem!!!. Jarus, May Almighty Allah reward you abundantly for this lovely gesture. I would have loved to be there. Sadly, I do not live in Lagos. (eyaaa. . . ) I wonder why you thought I lived in Lagos. But your offer is a very good one, even by intending to do this alone, you already have your reward, insha Allah. Then there is the reward for actually carrying out the real deed. You stand to gain sooo much. I wish I could be there with you all.I have been curious about how my fellow muslim Nairalanders are in real life. . . . .too bad I can't be there. But I wish you success in this your endeavour, may Allah make the deed easy for you to carry out, amin. And may Allah bless all of us Muslims with a very fruitful and rewarding month of Ramadan. Amin. |

Hey, Jarus, can you guys post pictures here after the iftar? So that those of us who could not be there would still have a little experience or feel of the iftar. . .but if you are not okay with it, it's fine. Just suggesting. |

Bro Jarus, Jazak Allahu khayran, May Almighty Allah reward you abundantly for this even just for the intention and cap it up wonderfully after the deed. I am in and would really love to meet javalove as he offered to assit me with learning Java programming without knowing me. Proof to the good nature of muslims to every one, even those they do not know. Ma Salam. Hope to be there. |
Re: Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Nobody: 4:55pm On Aug 23, 2009 |
What about you guys now? Ess and uplawal? Cant you guys make the first move? but seriously, uplawal, a muslim has already made an offer like that for those in the uk. See post #6 here: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-297887.0.html |
Re: Nairalanders Iftaar - Season 7 by Lagosboy: 9:58pm On Aug 23, 2009 |
Would not mind to host something in the UK but will like to know which location will be best for everyone in the UK. Although i do not live in london i think london might be the ideal place. Uplawal and other UK guys what do you all think |
