Assalaamu ‘alaikum warahmatullah!
O YOU who have attained to faith! Shall I point out to you a bargain that will save you from grievous suffering [in this life and the next]? You are to believe in God and His Apostle, and to strive hard in God’s cause with your possessions and your lives: this is for your own good – if you but knew it! [If you do so,] He will forgive you your sins, and [in the afterlife] will admit you into gardens through which running waters flow, and into goodly mansions in [those] gardens of perpetual bliss: that [will be] the triumph supreme! Surah As Saff 61:10-12
The Islamic Network, an organisation dedicated to the propagation of Islam and the establishment of concepts taught by our teacher Imran N Hosein, has embarked on an extensive Da’wah and development project. South Africa is a strategically important country due to the favourable political climate for Muslims, who are an influential minority amongst the 44 million inhabitants. The many similarities between Islam and the African Traditional religion make it fertile ground for active da’wah and we pray to Allah for His divine aid and to bless the effort with success.
However disunity amongst the Muslim communities has been a factor impeding the growth of Islam in the region. The project will see us embark on a revitalisation of the Muslim communities of South Africa, as well as inviting non muslims to the beauty of Islam.
