Dear resident of East Dulwich/North Cross R,


As you may be aware the month of Ramadan has started on Sunday 29th June 14, we have now completed a week of fasting with roughly 3 weeks to go!


The Friday Jummah (prayer) would be much more busy than usual and the night time prayers of Ramadan (11pm - 12:30am) has started last week, the Islamic community would like to raise awareness to the residents incase many of you may be wondering what is going on.


We would also like to apologise in advanced if we have caused any issues or disturbance to the local residence. Also, please do not be alarmed by large groups which may enter or leave the mosque - as they simply just want to meet, greet, get on with prayers and go, we are trying are best from keeping children away from the upstairs section of the mosque during night time prayers incase they cause disturbance.


Eid prayers may fall on either 27th, 28th or 29th July 2014 from 7:30am to 12pm so please expect many people entering/leaving the mosque.


Finally I would like to thank a majority of people for their kind support and understanding.


Ramadan Kareem! :)


(Local resident who attends the Mosque)

Yes, it is very hard to fast, with the long days and short nights, just 6hours from Iftaar (breaking fast) to sehri (meal before fast) but inshallah we all can get through it!

Yeah nice post by MrDude, and I'm sure there's no need to apologise for anything.


I was wondering, do people ever kill two birds with one stone and treat ramadan as a way to lose a few kilos? Or is it more common to binge on fine food in the permitted window?

I used to feel so sorry for my old boss during ramadan, he really tailed off towards the end of the day, we knew not to bother him after a certain hour ;)


Incidentally I've found it interesting that even quite secular muslims i know, happy to have a drink or a bacon sarnie tend to observe ramadan quite assiduously.

Thank you everyone for your understanding and support, and yes its fine to say happy Ramadan, the actual term is Ramadan Mubarak or Ramadan Kareem and its appropriate as Muslims fast because they are happy to experience what the less fortunate go without.

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      By beansprout · Posted

      Wow, well served with local supermarkets then…  Agree with ATM.. good c position to been mugged or cloned card - prob why not been considered before. Wasn’t there one outside post office and still  is2where people were abit nervous of using? Hope I am wrong but won’t see me rushing to use it…sure lots of folk will benefit thou. Not a great fan or user of Iceland but when it closed years ago people complained..  Guess they only b look at bigger sites - can’t recall an express one but a pity to those who frequent the store. Strange that Tesco can use it as local but Iceland can’t - guess it is  power of large supermarkets. Personally would have  loved an Aldi or Lidl but  clearly site to small. Only grocery stores left to come are Waitrose, Aldi, Lidl…

      Looking for good wifi suggestions please!

      By Sue · Posted

      I'm paying £31 pcm for full fibre 300, whatever that is. I'm not sure it's a particularly good deal now, but I did a comparison at the time I went onto it, and it was then. I don't have a landline any more, and my mobile is with iD, who piggyback off 3. I don't usually have any problems,  except once a few years back when the whole 3  network (?) went  down for quite a long time.

      I have Plusnet too.   I recently (August) had some problems with WiFi connection on different days but and the turning off and turning on didn’t work.  The WiFi didn’t work for quite a few hours - overnight in one case but eventually rectified itself.   Would be interested to know how much other people pay for Plusnet. I also have a landline with them as the mobile signal is bad inside house.  That is with EE and I want to change from them to another provider.
