as'salaamualikum :) for all the texans..unless there's other ppl that want to come from around the states :) ma'salaam ;-D ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As Salaam Alaikum, Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam. The Muslim Students’ Association of The University of Texas at Austin would like to invite you to our annual Islam Awareness Week (IAW), February 25 – March 3. Allah has honored us all by making us Muslims, and this is a week in which we celebrate our Islam. Our purpose is da’wa – to awaken the love of Islam in at least one heart. But who says you can’t have fun while doing da’wa? We’ve planned a week of exciting lectures, cultural poetry and Islamic entertainment that’ll remind you why you love being a Muslim. It’s a week you’ll remember for years to come, InshaAllah. Come join us and see for yourself why IAW has made UT MSA famous nationwide. And if that is not motivation enough, then come to accept the MSA-UT challenge: we challenge you to put on a better IAW then us. So come see what we’re all about and dare to put us to shame. We’ll see you there, InshaAllah. Wa Salaam Alaikum MSA Executive Committee ******************************************* ISLAM AWARENESS WEEK – SCHEDULE OF EVENTS Saturday, February 24 – Community Reachout: Mosque Clean-up, Nueces St., 9am Mon, Feb. 26 – Grand Opening of the Mini-Mosque and Islamic Jeopardy on the West Mall Tues, Feb. 27 – Islamic Culture Fair, 11-2pm, West Mall (free food from around the Muslim world) Wed, Feb. 28 – Speech, Dr. Sherman Jackson, “Islam and Black Religions”, 7pm Union Ballroom Thurs, Mar. 1 – Poetry Night at Barnes & Nobles, 7pm Fri, Mar. 2 – Friday Prayer on the South Mall, 1pm Sat, Mar. 3 – Sounds of Islam Concert, Texas Union Theater, 7:30pm, featuring Sons of the Crescent |

[slm] Harun! Long time no see man. I wish I could come to IAW. Unfortunately it'd be difficult because of my class schedule. I wish the UT brothers and sisters all the best, and may Allah help them make this a successful program, and guide the people through it. Ameen. Wassalamu alaikum. |
