— who we are

An Imaamat Council is where the Ulama and the community are united to develop shared solutions to the challenges we face. As one of six regional councils of the Muslim Judicial Council (SA), we bring those solutions to the doorstep of the Northern Suburbs — so that every household, masjid and family in our region can reach the services and guidance of the Ulama close to home.

Officiating nikāh, marriage guidance and the registration of marriages through appointed Aimmah, in accordance with the Sharī'ah and MJC procedure.

Moon-sighting & Dates

Communicating the official MJC (SA) moon-sighting announcements for Ramadān and the two Eids, and the Islamic dates that shape our community's calendar.

Zakāh, Fitrah & Welfare

Content guidance (for editors)

Keep this site trusted and current. A simple rhythm works best:

  • Post weekly — a reminder, event recap, or masjid update keeps the community returning.
  • Announcements first — moon-sighting, Eid times and janāzah notices are the priority; publish them promptly.
  • Verify before posting — only share dates, rulings and notices confirmed by the council or the MJC (SA).
  • Respect privacy — get consent before publishing photos of families, and never post welfare recipients' details.
  • Keep the tone dignified — restrained, warm and factual, in keeping with the council's standing.
