Temporary Prayer Room Update

Assalamu Alaikum,

Below are the dates and times for which the prayer room is reserved. Please only show up to the fourth floor for the dates specified; our reservations are still pending for the other dates. Sorry for the inconvenience, but the rooms are not always open for reservations, especially for long periods of time in the day. And also, please respect the rules that were set concerning prayer in MLK, the most important being NO PRAYER IN THE HALLWAY. The case for a permanent prayer room is still in the works, please make du'a for it, as there is no power or might except in Allah.

Temporary Prayer Room

Assalamu Alaikum WarahmutAllah,

In our efforts to establish a permanent prayer room on campus, we are making progress and closing in on one soon. We are working with members of the student body government and the Dean of Students, and alhamdulillah are very close. Please make du'a so with the permission of Allah (swt) we are able to establish a comfortable environment for Muslims here at UC Berkeley.

To relieve us of the problems of trying to find an adequate prayer space on campus, we have reserved rooms on the 4th floor of MLK for the next week FROM 1PM TO 7 PM as a temporary solution before we will inshaa'Allah have a permanent room. Please note that there are some rules we as Muslims must follow to ensure that we don't take this privilege for granted and lose it. Please brothers and sisters, this room is a privilege, so use the room FOR PRAYER ONLY

No sleeping, wrestling, or socializing in or outside the room. Please keep the adhan and prayer at a respectable volume. Use the elevator so as to not set off the unpredictable fire alarm on the stairs. No keeping rugs or sheets anywhere on the 4th floor; please bring your personal prayer rugs with you. In terms of making wudu in the 4th floor bathroom, please clean the water you leave on the floor and around the sink afterwards. Please be respectable to the staff and others on the 4th floor; we have already tarnished the image of Muslims in some of their eyes, so let's have some adab and try to redeem ourselves by following the example of the Prophet (saaws).

The room is going to be quite small, so once you or a group has finished praying, please clear the room so others can pray afterwards. And ABSOLUTELY NO PRAYING IN THE HALLWAY. If in any case the door is locked, find another space on campus. 

With that, this is the schedule for the next week. We will be updating it through email and the MSA website every week until we have a permanent space inshaa'Allah. Please note there is NO PRAYER ROOM ON NOVEMBER 4TH.

Group Prayers

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Due to the absence of a regular prayer space on campus, some brothers have organized a place outside to hold group prayers for the time being.

The Afternoon Prayers are being held on the roof of Bear's Lair Pub. There are many ways to get there, but taking the stairs from the lower sproul plaza is the easiest, but you can get there from upper sproul by going around the periphery of MLK. The Jamaa' for Dhuhr is at 1:30 PM and the Jamaa' for Asr is at 5:15  PM (Monday to Thursday). Please help establish salaah and make the jamaa bigger in the way of Allah Subhana wa Ta'la.
