IEC NEWSLETTER
This month is the month of our Holy Prophet’s birth in the year 570. Prophet Muhammed was and continues to be an inspiration to Muslims everywhere. He was known for his overall wonderful personality; we have heard many stories on the Prophet’s kindness, piety, and sincerity. At the age of
40, he announced his Prophethood and began preaching about Islam. Enmity grew among the disbelievers and Prophet Muhammed
and is companions were forced to leave Mecca and travel to Medina. Even after all the brutalities, he still forgave those who went against him. Prophet Muhammed is the epitome of what we all strive to be. While we can never replicate his perfection, we all aspire to follow in his footsteps and go on the right path.

Prophet Muhammad (saw)
said: “Whoever follows a path
in the pursuit of knowledge, Allah will make a path to paradise easy
for him. ”

TA class spreads message of “Who is Hussain?”
IEC NEWSLETTER
From planning venues, to picking shirt designs, to water bottle assembling events, alhamdulillah our Who Is Hussain? water bottle distribution event was quite a success! We left the Madrassah to make it in time for those making morning strolls at Crane’s Roost Park. At first, getting into the ‘moment’ for many of us wasn’t simple however by the end of our 3 hour shift we’d gotten a word with nearly half of those walking around. Some wished us luck with our endeavors; others gave us scowls taking this as propagation, and quite a few made conversations yearning for more about Imam Hussain and his mission. Being the birthdate of Our Holy Prophet, starting off with him as the basic foundation of our conversation was a route many of us took. Overall, everyone’s efforts truly paid off. On behalf of Madrassah TA Class, we’re definitely looking out to organising & taking part in such events more often, after all the Holy Prophet has said “Islam will spread in all places that have day and night” it’s upon us individuals to act upon this. Special thanks to the Who Is Hussain? Orlando team for their help.

Parents CornerThe first semester of Madrasah has gone
by quickly and is now coming to a close.As final grades are
submitted and report cards sent home, we want to give a few tips on how to approach grades with your kids. Rather than
thinking negatively about the low grades your kids may have received, try and encourage them to work harder to improve
those grades. If the students put in effort and
received such grades, try to be optimistic and
see how you can help them improve their
learning and studying techniques. Also, think
about scheduling an appointment with
the teacher to better understand the grade and discuss ideas on how to raise your child’s grade. Provide the motivation
that your child may need to become a great
student!

The “Walking in the Footsteps of Imam Husain (AS)” Good Deeds fundraiser ended on a positive note with all of the Madrasah classes raising over $700. The Kindergarten class
raised the most money and was rewarded with a pizza party organized by the PTA. The deeds varied from helping
in the kitchen to sharing with siblings and young children even hand wrote their deeds. We would like to thank the students for working hard to raise the funds and the PTA for
providing a great opportunity for us and for treating the winners.

This issue features poet brother Shabbir Kermani. His poem was recited at Hussain Day and is called “ Who is Hussain?”
Who is the reason that still descends to the ground today rain...the reason the dwellers of the earth feel ashamed to say “I feel pain”...
the reason that blood continues to flow through the main vein...the reason that evil thinks before rising again and again...
who is Hussain? You ask me to explain?do not ask who is Hussain...do not ask who is Hussain…
perpetual pools of pure passion, become so very difficult to contain….do not ask who is Hussain…
For the sky of tribulation fell upon both, body & brain….yet not a single complain….
the mountains of calamities rose yet still stability did maintain…death dug deep ditches of devastation in the terrain…
yet not a single complain….through such scenarios how does one remain sane?
in fact, he blew prayer towards those who redefined inhumane…and Yet the thrones of the tyrants quiver till this day just by the thought of his
name...
From the Great Mosque of Spain...to the land of two seas, that is Bahrain…
from every mount and hill to every plateau and plain...who’s state’s territorial boundaries know no restraint?
that the far edges of heaven have condensed themselves between the haramain...I ask you….to whom belongs all of this domain?
none other than Hussain, none other than Hussain...for it is over the hearts that is his reign...
So, Tell me who is the reason that the day & night Remain...Tell me who is the reason that the day & night Remain...
And then and only then shall I tell you who is……
