On May 23 and 24, 2009, from 10:00am - 5:00pm, Masjid Toronto will be participating in Doors Open Toronto for the second time. Last year, over 50 volunteers helped welcome around 600 guests, give tours, serve food, and share with our guests a little bit about Islam and Muslims. InshaAllah, this year, we are looking for more volunteers to help us welcome more guests to our masjid and introduce people to the beauty of Islam.

Due to the increased number of brothers and sisters who pray at Masjid Toronto on Fridays, we have instituted 3 Friday Prayers. During the Standard Time (winter), the Khotbas start at 12:00, 12:50 and 1:40 PM, and the Salat is about 25 minutes after, respectively. At Daylight Savings Time (summer), the Khotbas start at 12:10, 1:10 and 2:10 PM, and the Salat is about 30 minutes, respectively. We encourage all the brothers and sisters to provide us with their feedback in order to improve the quality of services, including the Khutbahs at the Masjid. May Allah (swt) accept our prayers and multiply our rewards.
