There have been no confirmed hilal sightings in North America this evening (Thursday, Oct 11). Consequently, we will insha’Allah complete 30 days of Ramadan and have Eid prayers at the Texas A&M Memorial Student Center (rooms 224 and 225) on Saturday at 8:30 am.
Takbeerat will start at 8:15 am. Please arrive by 8 am as you may need time to find parking space. We suggest parking in the Koldus Parking Garage located directly across from the MSC & Rudder Tower. If space is not available, you may consider taking your family to the MSC first, and then parking in the West Campus Parking Garage. You may walk to the MSC from there using the tunnel / walkway.
