As Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Dear Students,

We would like to take the opportunity to wish all of our students a warm greeting as we approach the welcome of our beloved month, Ramadan. As most of you already know, this year Ramadan will begin either Tuesday, October 4 or Wednesday, October 5. As this time of reflection and repentance nears, we would like to draw your attention to our Ramadan office hours. We will be in our offices from 10 O'clock A.M to 3 O'clock P.M Monday through Friday. You can reach us via phone or e-mail as usual. We hope that your Ramadan will be fruitful, blessed and full of mercy. Please be keen to your safety at night when you perform your prayers. Try to stay in groups rather than alone.

Remember you can always reach Dr. Talib Al-Salmi at (202)–716-1234 for any emergencies that arise. Please keep us in your dua's.

Sincerely,

Cultural Division

The Embassy of the Sultanate of Oman
