Ramadan revives US mosques two years after COVID-19 outbreak
Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center in Northern Virginia marked the beginning of the fasting month of Ramadan as the region is home to 40,000 Muslims, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).
 
Based on the polls and regarding the vaccination against COVID-19, mosques have removed social distancing orders.
 
During two years of the pandemic infection Iftar meals were delivered to homes though the communal Iftar meals are held at mosques and nearly 600 people are served daily while the number reaches 750 at the weekends.
 
For those who cannot attend the gatherings at mosques, Iftar meals are still delivered to homes and the communal meal is open to non-Muslims as well.
 
The executives have decided to resume Itikaf ceremonies which were annually held in the last 10 days of Ramadan and were closed due to the pandemic infection.
 
The mosque executives however will decide if the ceremony should be held inside the mosque when the participants finish registration.
 
Public relation of the mosque also announced that special programs will be held for the children during Ramadan, an activity which had been halted during the past two years of COVID-related restrictions.
