Event Details

We all know Surah Fatiha like the backs of our hands. We can recite it in our sleep! However, do we all recite it correctly? With proper tajwid?

Come to this free two-hour workshop with your own Qur’an, humility, a sense of humor, and an open mind. And bring a friend!

10 a.m. to noon | Saturday, September 10 | MCC Conference Room | Free to attend (RSVP only if you want to join the post-workshop lunch from noon to 1 p.m.) at mcceastbay.org/opening

Join in person (much preferred) or watch virtually at mcceastbay.org/live

Ust. Ashir will give us a letter by letter, word by word, and ayah by ayah breakdown of the tajweed of Surah Fatihah. This is an interactive, engaging family event about the most important surah in the Quran.

This workshop, part of the Surah Fatihah National Tour, is sponsored by Measured Tones Institute of Quran and MCC East Bay
