Weekly
Duaa Kumail Program — Every Thursday Night
Open to everyone — free admission
Every Thursday night (laylat al-Jum’ah), Al Zahra Learning Center holds its weekly spiritual program at our center in southeast Calgary. Everyone is welcome — bring your family and friends.
Program — starts at 8:00 PM
- Duaa Kumail (دعاء كميل) — the supplication taught by Imam Ali (a.s.) to his companion Kumail ibn Ziyad, recited together in congregation
- Ziyarat of the 14 Ma’sumeen (a.s.) (زيارة المعصومين الأربعة عشر) — saluting the Prophet (s) and his purified family
The program is recited in Arabic with translations available, and is followed by time to connect with the community.
Why Thursday night?
Thursday night — the eve of Friday — carries special merit in Islamic tradition for worship, supplication, and remembering Allah (swt). Duaa Kumail is among the most beloved supplications recited on this night by communities around the world.
