HIGHLIGHTS
GISER Annual Ramadan Iftar April 9th at ARIS
The Annual Iftar has been a main event every Ramadan where the
community comes together to enjoy iftar together in a family setting. This has
not been able to take place in the past couple years and this Ramadan is an
opportunity to re-engage the community in an outdoor safe setting.
This Ramadan event is multi-cultural and an opportunity to begin our healing
after a long battle with the pandemic. This year, we will be served dishes from
Antalya, Bosphorus, and flavors from all over Turkey. A fusion and refinement
of Mediterranean, Balkan, Middle Eastern, Central Asian, and Eastern
European.
Tickets are avialble for sale and are limited to 150 seats. Get yours now! You

ACTIVITIES
Daily Taraweeh After Isha'a @ ARIS
DAILY TARAWEEH PROGRAM The Isha'a prayer in
Ramadan will start at 7:45pm throughout the month at Al-
Rayan International School campus in East Legon as there
is not much change in Isha's time in April. Isha'a prayer will
be followed by Taraweeh prayers and we intend to finish
everything by 9:00pm, except on days when we'll hold Fund
Raising or other competitions and activities.
Daily Iftar Sofra for CIS Students
During this upcoming Ramadan, the Society offers well-
wishers, individuals, and corporate bodies the opportunity
to cover the cost of one Ramadan day out of 30 Iftar
(breaking fast) days at the College of Islamic Studies. The
Society is working and contracting with iftar meal providers
and approved catering companies to prepare meals and
for sofras to be offered at the College of Islamic Studies.
There are 30 days in the month and limited to one day per
donor.

able to help please contact community@giser.org.gh or if
