O Allah, bless this Halaqa, allow us to gain, act upon and share beneficial knowledge. Guide us, forgive our sins and grant us Jannah with our families and loved ones. Ameen
We read Surah Fatihah aloud altogether, then sisters individually read aloud a few letters/words, ayahs (according to her ability and with the help and encouragement of her fellow sisters). We read Surah Yunus from Ayah 1 to Ayah 25. In sha Allah, this will be an ongoing part of our Halaqa and one day in sha Allah, we will have Khatam Quran and begin again.
Sisters shared reading and discussed the translation of the approximate meaning. (https://quran.com/10)
Sister Megan read the following article:
We discussed the issue of salted versus non-salted nuts. Salt being a cause of dehydration
yet being a plus when your blood pressure drops. Moderation seemed to be the answer.
In sha Allah, our next Halaqa will be on Thursday, June 8th at our headquarters.
