Ramadan Majlis
Ramadan Majlis after Tarawih prayers are organised on separate days for women and men, with the aim of discussing religious and social issues that contribute to enhancing positive communication between members of society.
Guidance and Impact
As for the "Guidance and Impact" programme, it is presented through awareness videos that highlight the impact of noble values and volunteering in improving the quality of life and consolidating the spirit of giving.
Promoting volunteer work
On this occasion, Fatima Musa, Executive Director of SAVW, confirmed that these activities come within the framework of the award's efforts to promote the concept of volunteer work as a fundamental value in the Emirati community, especially since the award takes advantage of community and religious occasions and events to enhance its communication with the community in order to promote the values of volunteering in various ways.
Musa pointed out that the holy month of Ramadan represents an ideal opportunity to enhance the spirit of cooperation and giving, and SAVW seeks through these activities to spread the message of volunteering as a means to achieve sustainable development, and support the values of compassion and solidarity among members of society.
Engaging all age groups
Musa added that the award is keen to attract all age groups from society to participate in these awareness events, with the aim of enhancing their role in effectively contributing to building a brighter future based on cooperation and humanitarian work.
Sharjah Award for Voluntary Work calls on all members of society to benefit from these activities and participate in spreading the values of goodness and giving during the holy month.

Joy fills Sharjah's mosques and prayer grounds on Eid Al Adha

A Greeting from Sharjah Sheikh Salem Al Doubi extended his heartfelt congratulations to the leadership of the United Arab Emirates, its people, and the entire Islamic nation on the occasion of Eid Al Adha. He prayed to Almighty God to return this blessed occasion with goodness, prosperity, and blessings, and to preserve the nation's security and well-being. A Day of Devotion and Celebration In exclusive remarks to 'Sharjah 24,' Sheikh Salem emphasised that Eid Al Adha is a day of great happiness where sincerity and closeness to God are manifested. From the early morning hours, crowds of worshippers gather at prayer grounds and mosques, reciting takbeer and tahleel, after washing themselves and adorning their finest Eid garments. Following the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), they take one route to the prayer and return by another. Sacrifice and Solidarity in Eid Traditions The Sheikh pointed out that Muslims commemorate this blessed occasion by offering sacrificial animals in emulation of the Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him). They partake in the meat, distribute it as charity, and gift it to relatives and neighbours — a profound embodiment of compassion and solidarity that the rituals of Eid cultivate. Families gather, relatives visit each other, homes overflow with joy, gifts, and expressions of gratitude to God for His countless blessings. Eid Sermon: A Message of Sincerity Sheikh Al Doubi noted that this year's Eid sermon was titled 'Our Eid: A Celebration of Sincerity," focusing on the themes of devotion and obedience. Meanwhile, pilgrims spend the most sacred day standing on the plains of Arafat, before proceeding to Muzdalifah and then circumambulating the Holy Kaaba. In this shared moment, the joy of Muslims across the world becomes complete. Days of Tashreeq: Continuing the Joy He added that the following days — the three Days of Tashreeq — remain days of eating, drinking, and remembrance of God. Muslims seize these moments with continued takbeer and tahleel, extending the celebration of Eid, maintaining family ties, and preserving the holiday as a season where joy is intertwined with worship, and mercy and unity blossom among people.
