Assalamu Alikom,
The ICSP board has decided that Jumaa will not take place if the hospital COVID bed capacity exceeds 75%. The information from the City of Lubbock website suggests that we exceeded 100% capacity (https://ci.lubbock.tx.us/departments/health-department/about-us/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19). This means, there are no beds for COVID patients needing to be admitted in Lubbock. Accordingly, we will not have Jumaa this week or next week. We will monitor this closely Insha’Allah. All other activities at ICSP will continue at the previous level for the current time. We will send this information through an email to the community and post on masjid Facebook page ASAP. May Allah protect us, accept our deeds pure for his sake and lead us in the right direction during this difficult time.
Our own Dr. Eman Attaya is reading Children’s books online this weekend. She authored the books. It is sponsored by the Unity Center (https://unityislamiccenter.org). Please make plans to attend. For more information, see attachment.
Jazakum Allahu Khayran
