Ramadan Karim everyone! I wanted to share a bit of news that is cause for exultation for Muslims at Emory Univ. Atlanta, and for Muslims in all of America. This past Friday, Dec. 8, at 2:01 PM from the University BellTower, where, usually Church bells chime, it was the sound of the ADHAN that came forth from the loudspeakers; flooding the entire university with its majestic simplicity and beauty. The entire University, at lunch time, could hear the Adhan, from the student centers to people inside classrooms [many muslim students in class at the time sat near the windows to better hear the Adhan]. Everything was still. The world, the birds, and the students all stopped; inundated in the waves of those powerful words. By the fifth verse, there were a few eyes wet with tears of joy. For 3 minutes and 13 seconds there was hypnosis. At the conclusion of the Adhan, the Muslim students gathered at the BellTower and held a small Dua before heading off to Jummah. Inshallah, this will become a regular event [every Friday] at Emory University. I encourage all of you to attempt a way by which to make the Public Adhan a reality at your schools. And I hope that you will keep us in your prayers. allah ma'ak. Ameer U. Shaikh President, Emory Muslim Students Ascn. ashaikh@emory.edu 404-251-1640 |
