Iftar every night
We break fast together at Maghrib every evening of Ramadan. Meals are prepared by rotating volunteer families.
Ramadan 1447 / 2027
Ramadan in Gippsland
The holy month is the most alive month at the mosque. Whether you're 3 years into the deen or 30, come and taste it with us — one iftar, one taraweeh, one dua at a time.
What to expect
The Ramadan rhythm
Taraweeh after Isha
20 rak'ah taraweeh led by huffaz from our community and visiting imams. Typically finishes by 10:30 PM.
Suhoor tip sheet
We share a simple, nutritionist-approved suhoor guide in the Friday email — practical, local, and budget-aware.
Laylatul Qadr (last 10 nights)
Extended Qiyam on the odd nights of the last 10. The night of the 27th is particularly full — arrive early.
Eid al-Fitr
Community Eid prayer, breakfast, and celebrations at the West Gippsland Arts Centre on the morning of 1 Shawwal.
For visitors
Thinking about coming to your first iftar?
- You don't have to be fasting to come — you're welcome as our guest.
- Arrive 15 minutes before Maghrib so you can sit with people.
- Modest clothing is appreciated; we can lend a scarf if needed.
- The meal is free; donations are appreciated but never required.
- Ask anyone anything — Ramadan is when people want to talk about it.
