Join us for our upcoming Muharram Program at the Jaffery Center of Roanoke.
Muharram marks the beginning of the Islamic year and is a time of reflection, remembrance, learning, and community. Through lectures, supplications, and gatherings, we commemorate the life, sacrifice, and enduring message of Imam Hussain (A.S.), whose stand for faith, justice, and human dignity continues to inspire people around the world.
We warmly invite individuals and families to attend, learn, and connect with the community. Food will be served nightly, and all are welcome.
