MAPS is pleased to partner with Seattle Children’s Hospital to make this Ramadan and Eid a memorable one for all its young patients. We will be donating 300 toys on Eid Day to all children at 3 different Seattle Children’s locations Insha-Allah. We ask the community to generously purchase 1 or 2 gifts from the approved list below and drop them at MAPS Library before April 19th. Mention that this is for Seattle Children's. These toys will then be distributed before Eid to the patients at Children's.

When any one of you gets up in the morning in the state of fasting, he should neither use obscene language nor do any act of ignorance. And if anyone slanders him or quarrels with him, he should say:" I am fasting, I am fasting."

As we move into our new normal following the past two years, MAPS is once again planning singles Iftars on weekdays and community Iftars on weekends (Fri/Sat) during the blessed month of Ramadan 2022, insha'Allah. The cost of Iftar is $15 per plate.
MAPS will additionally sponsor up to $30,000 for Iftar at the Ethiopian Muslims Association of Seattle (EMAS) and the Muslim American Youth Foundation (MAYF) of Seattle. These are neighboring communities that are in need and sponsorship will benefit them immensely.
If you’re interested in sponsoring Iftar at MAPS or the Seattle communities, please sign up and make your donation at the following links:
A QR Code for Iftar signup will also be posted throughout the masjid.
If you plan on sponsoring Iftar for a day and want to make special arrangements, please contact manager@mapsredmond.org.
May Allah SWT accept our fasting and prayers and reward us immensely during this blessed month.
