Saratoga Masjid: A unique opportunity
To Support The Vision for the Future
Focused on our Youth. Towards self-sufficiency through rental income.
Our focus is to build the Islamic identity and character of families,
especially our youth. Under the guidance of Sh. Aladdin El Bakri,
the community has thrived. The attendance at Jummah and Taraweeh
prayers is over 300 people. But more importantly there are 70 preteens between the ages of 9 years and 12 years that attend weekly
sessions. And over 100 people attend every Friday night an interactive
program to build strong families. Our vision now is to take this thriving
community to the next level.
The rectangular lot faces Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road (De Anza Blvd.)
and is just 1 block from the current Masjid, and very centrally located
just ½ mile from Highway 85 on one of the main thoroughfares in the
area. The cost of the land is $3 million. $2 million is due by November
15, 2010 and $1 million will be carried interest-free by the owner for 2
years and payable by November 2012.
This is a unique opportunity – where folks can contribute to starting a
center focused on the vision for the future of our community. We invite
Muslims from all over the Bay Area to join us in supporting this vision
for a center that is focused on Pre-Teens and Youth.

Ramadan - An Opportunity
to Know Your Inner Self
The nafs continuously asserts itself through
it's ties with the body and according to a complex and ever-shifting world of attraction and
desire, knowledge and ignorance that endlessly churns within it. Through its movements
and motions, it seeks what it needs and wants
and can become, depending on circumstances,
complacent or cavalier, disdainful or self-assured, arrogant, callous or ambitious, lethargic
or craving - endlessly acting and reacting
within the confines of its limited knowledge.

fasting we let them subside and wane. We let
them grow silent so we have a chance to hear
what we otherwise would not hear, to perceive
what we otherwise could not perceive. We
subdue our physical form and when it grows
silent we perhaps become aware of a spiritual
form that resides subtly within us.The vigil
of denial and regulation of the physical form
and the nafs is maintained until the spirit and
mind’s ascendancy is clear. “Fast until the
night....” (Qur’an 2:187) The night approaches
and the day’s fast ends with the former hierarchy reversed - what was first (physically
and psychically generated needs, wants, and
desires) comes last and what was last comes
first, and with this new ordering of spirit and
body in place, the fast is completed. Over the
course of the month of Ramadan, as the days
merge into the nights, this drama of reversal is
repeated and intensified till the person fasting
( with complete sincerity and profound intensity) approaches spiritual readiness.
Until in the watch (the vigil) of the last ten
nights of the month of Ramadan, there arrives
the possibility of a profound inner remaking,
an unfolding of the potential to witness the
laylatul qadr. “And what can convey to you
what laylatul qadr is? That night is better than
a thousand months....” (Qur’an 97:2-3) During the day we break ourselves down, we fast
from what sustains our existence - we submit
our clay form to be unmade, to be kneaded
and worked over - we remove ourselves from
our material subsistence and turn to prayer and
spiritual subsistence from God - we prepare
ourselves to be reshaped. The onset of the
darkness of night is representative of pure
potential waiting to emerge into existence waiting for the command and decree which
will give it form. “The angels and the spirit
(ruh) descend in it, by the command of their
Lord with every decree....” (Qur’an 97:4) We
turn ourselves into malleable clay awating the
shaping command of that night - anticipating
the profound and weighty descents that accompany laylatul qadr. “(That night is) Peace
till the breaking of the dawn.” (Qur’an 97:5)
So sawm (fasting) fulfills its meanings - to
hold back from, to abstain, pertains to the
restraint engendered through the fast - to
rise beyond pertains to the results that God
bestows upon those who seek the fast with sincerity and knowledge.
The material form and its impulses (manifested through the nafs) are reigned in during
fasting. All the things which give strength and
life to the body and nafs are terminated - the
attachment is weakened. We cease to consume
and are no longer able to enjoy what feeds our
physical form and with that cessation we begin
to unhook the clamps which bind us to the
most basic goods of this world. By penetrating
to the very root of our attachment, to the most
fundamental layer, to the very seat ofour creaturely connection to the world - food, water,
and more. we overturn their dominion and arrive at a position where we, for a time, subdue Irshaad Hussain is a contemporary Islamic
