Shura Council member, the Ithna'Ashari Jamaat of Los Angeles invites the community to join hands and honor the mothers at their 6th Annual Interfaith Mother's Day event on Saturday, May 2nd.

 The Shura Council appreciates Masjid Omar al Farouk for organizing couple of informative and educational programs. Dr. Sana Khan of IIOC and Sr. Duaa Alwan of ISOC debate the merits of Masjid governance by a membership elected governing board versus a self-appointed board.  Earlier in the week, IIOC also organized a community teach-in about the Countering Violent Extremism program by the Obama administration.  

 The Shura Council's Prison Outreach Program Director, Imam Abdul Hafiz, was invited by the Bureau of Prisons to train its chaplains about Muslims and Islam. Imam Abdul Hafiz is one of the senior most and now retired Supervisory Chaplain of the Bureau of Prisons.
