Searching for Love in Islam
Special Guest: Br Faraz Khan
Monday Feb 16th, 2009

And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect.

Rutgers-Newark MSA

Here’s a lecture on love, relationship, and Islam. I have been thinking about this topic from a youth’s perspective i.e. all of the challenges that come with gender relations. I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic. In this lecture I am talking to college students about making sense of Dos and Dont’s of Islam and “love”.

Jeopardy at Rutgers-Newark

Posted by Faraz On October - 16 - 2008


thinkin’ outside the box!

Rutgers-Newark MSA - Jeopardy!

If you missed out on the MSA’s exciting game of Jeopardy, we feel bad for you…

Want to know what happened?

The event began with the recitation of the Holy Quran by Br.Faraz Khan. As the game began, brothers & sisters started pouring into the room to join in the fun. As you know, it was Brothers VS Sisters, so there was fierce competition at hand.

Alhumdulillah amidst laughter and smiles, brothers & sisters competed excitedly.

Brother Faraz Khan hosted the game itself & Br.Mustafa Gatallori provided humorous commentary as the game proceeded & the brothers’ score seemed to tower over the sisters The brothers aimed for the bigger points (400, 500, 1000!), while the sisters aimed for medium size ones. Then it seemed it was almost equal: 2600 brothers & 2100 sisters.

Then it was time for the Final Jeopardy Question:

In which surah does the last ayah have ALL the letters of the Arabic alphabet?

Know the answer?

Its Surah al-Fath (Chapter 26)

The brothers were unable to come up with the answer & were left with 500 while the sisters managed to get the right answer & won with a grand total of 3600 points.

MashaAllah!

Congratulations Sisters

& Good job everyone!
