Asalaamualaykum everyone,

(Non-Muslims: For a Fast-a-thon pledge form click here: (.doc) (.pdf)) Before breaking the fast at sunset, we will have our Fast-a-thon event in which we try to raise awareness and money for the victims of the recent flood in Pakistan. Please join us in this event so that we can collectively help those in need.

Thanks,
MSA Staff

Qur’an For Busy People Online Webinar- July 18th, 2010 From 12 pm-1pm (FREE!!!)

Assalamu ‘alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu brothers & sisters,

How is your relationship with the Qur’an? How have you been with it?

Do you read the Qur’an in Arabic?

The Qur’an is a “compass” for us Muslims

“Do they not then think deeply in the Quran, or are their hearts locked up (from understanding it)?”

Surah Muhammed 24

“And We have indeed made the Quran easy to understand and remember, then is there any that will remember (or receive admonition)?”

Surah Al-Qamar 17

Do you understand the Qur’an (in Arabic)?

Many Muslims are reading it but do not know the meanings of the words of Allah. So how can the holy book be your compass if you even do not understand?
