The Holly Night of Berat (Berat Candle) Celebration

Divan Center members gathered to celebrate the Holly Night of Berat on March 17, 2022. We started our program with a community fast breaking dinner. Afterwards, our guest speaker Dr. Ergun Capan talked about the virtues of the Night of Berat. He emphasized the importance of praying to Allah with a sincere heart during this night. We learned that loving and forgiving each other for the sake of Allah is a great blessing. At the end, we raised our hands and made a heartfelt prayer for the salvation our oppressed brothers and sisters in Turkey and abroad and for peace around the world. We closed our program with the Isha Prayer. We left the program spiritually enlightened and motivated to do hizmet (service) for our community.
