Events

Suffa Foundation organises events on a monthly and weekly basis following the Islamic calendar, providing a great platform for members of the community to gather together. These events are not just a time of relaxation, but also an opportunity to gain knowledge as well as remembrance to our beloved Prophet. It is amazing to see how this foundation is bringing a sense of unity among like-minded believers who can fellowship in their faith and celebrate special occasions such as religious festivals.
