Ramadan Mubarak! As we do every Ramadan, the Bangladeshi Muslims are once again organizing an Iftaar-&-Dinner at the Islamic Society of Greater Kansas City (ISGKC Masajid at 8501 E 99th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64134) on the night of 27th Ramadan (Liylatul Qadr), which is on Tuesday, August 14th. The dinner will be followed by a fundraising event to support ISGKC. In previous years we have helped to collect significant amount of money in similar events. This year is particularly important given that ISGKC has taken several major initiatives including Masajid expansion, community center kitchen modernization, and funeral facility upgrade, which will be of great service to the entire Muslim community in the region. Please mark your calendar and join us on the night of Liylatul Qadr at ISGKC, Insha’Allah.
We are inviting you to contribute generously to this noble cause. The suggested amount is $75 or more (by check payable to ISGKC; write "ISGKC IFTAAR" on the memo line). The collected money will go towards the expenses for arranging Iftaar-&-Dinner for 400+ attendees; any remaining balance will be donated to ISGKC as before. Additionally, please consider attending the fundraising and donating generously.
Why ISGKC? ISGKC uniquely serves the community in many different ways as a central organization and deserves our full support. To name a few, ISGKC provides leadership in all Muslim affairs in this region, facilitates Eid prayers, Friday prayers, and daily prayers, provides full-service Islamic funeral services, and runs an accredited full-time Islamic school.
Let us take pride as Bangladeshi Muslims by being examples to others through active participation in the community. Ramadan is about giving; let us demonstrate that we care by giving back to our Muslim community. Volunteers will soon be contacting you to facilitate your donations. If you would like to volunteer in making phone calls and/or during the event, please let us know too. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to all Bangladeshi Muslims near and far. We are counting on you for this noble cause!!
May Allah Sub'hanu'wata'la forgive us, accept our good deeds, and accept us among HIS true servants during the month of Ramadan.
Salaam & Du'a,
Arif Ahmed

Keeping with the practice of past several years, the Bangladeshi Muslims are once again organizing an Iftaar-&-Dinner at the Islamic Society of Greater Kansas City (ISGKC Masajid at 8501 E 99th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64134) on the night of 27th Ramadan (Liylatul Qadr), which is on Friday, August 26th. The dinner will be followed by a fundraising event to support ISGKC. Last year, we helped to collect $76K in a similar event. This year, we expect to raise significantly more money to support major ISGKC initiatives including Masajid expansion, community center kitchen modernization, funeral facility upgrade, and repayment of parking lot improvement loan. Please mark your calendar and join us on the night of Liylatul Qadr at ISGKC, insha'allah. <br /><br />We are asking you for a contribution of $50 or more (by check*) towards the expenses for arranging the Iftaar-&-Dinner for 400+ attendees and the fundraising event. Additionally, please consider donating generously towards the fundraising. <br /><br />Why ISGKC? ISGKC uniquely serves the community in many different ways as a central organization and deserves our full support. To name a few, ISGKC provides leadership in all Muslim affairs in this region, facilitates Eid prayers, Friday prayers, and daily prayers, provides full-service Islamic funeral services, and runs an accredited full-time Islamic school. <br /><br />Let us take pride as Bangladeshi Muslims by being examples to others through active participation in the community. Ramadan is about giving; let us demonstrate that we care by giving back to our Muslim community. Volunteers will soon be contacting you to facilitate your donations. You can also send your check to one of the persons listed below. If you would like to volunteer in making phone calls and/or during the event, please let us know too. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to all Bangladeshi Muslims near and far. We are counting on you for this noble cause!! <br /><br />May Allah Sub'hanu'wata'la forgive us, accept our good deeds, and accept us among HIS true servants during the month of Ramadan.<br /> <br />Send** your checks and/or direct your queries to one of the following individuals:<br /><br />Missouri<br /><br />Tanvir Moneem (lead on the Missouri side): 816-729-7319<br />Mahbubur Rahman: 816-522-5880<br />Raqibul Huq: 816-554-6434<br />Dr. Mostafa Kamal: 660-864-1548<br />Ahmed Anis Rahman: 816-308-6627<br />Emon: 816-377-8328<br /> <br /><br />Kansas<br /><br />Sibghat Khan (Shujan) (lead on the Kansas side): 913-449-1578 (C) / 816-214-8765 (H) <br />Saiful Islam: 913-491-2915 (H)/214-336-6680 (C)<br />Mohammed Tawfiq Hussain (Salim Bhai): 913-439-1604<br />Ehsan Masud (Babu): 913-231-1846<br />Mizanur Rahman: 817-907-5641<br />Mustafa Sayem: 609-334-4016<br /><br />*Please make your check payable to ISGKC and write "ISGKC IFTAAR" on the memo line.<br />**If you prefer to mail your check, please send it to:<br /><br />% Saiful Islam<br />13148 Kessler Street, Overland Park, KS 66213<br /><br />OR<br /><br />%Arif Ahmed<br />12620 Slater Lane, Overland Park, KS 66213BAGKChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454471642701529081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343385988085451170.post-90629624463146146222011-08-02T11:35:00.001-05:002011-08-02T11:37:13.073-05:00Iftaar and Taraweeh Prayers at ICKAssalamu-alaikum and Ramadan Mubarak.<br /><br />The first day of Ramadan is Monday August 1st, inshallah (as decided by www.fiqhcouncil.org and accepted by ICK and ISGKC and most other masajid in the USA)<br /><br />This year Taraweeh at ICK (14750 West 143rd Street, Olathe, KS 66062) will be special because inshallah we will have two young hafiz (18 and 16) from the Plano Texas masjid who will take turn leading the taraweeh prayers at ICK.
