ANNUAL IJTEMAH OF NORTH AMERICA, 1990
At the State Fairgrounds, Richmond, Virginia
July 6th, 7th, and 8th 1990
Dear and Respected Brothers,
Assalam-o-alaikum.
The success of the entire mankind lies in the obedience of the
orders of Allah and following traditions (Sunnah) of Prophet
Muhammad (SAW). In order to bring this into our lives we need
to go out in the Path of Allah to make some sacrifices.
For this purpose, there will be, Insha Allah, a National Ijtemah
in Richmond, VA on July 6-8, 1990. The success of the Ijtemah
depends on the numbers of Jamaats going out in the Path of Allah
from the Ijtemah. Therefore the brothers are requested to work
very hard and make Tashkeel.. to have as many Brothers from
their area ready to spend time (4 months, 40 days, 20 days,
10 days) from the Ijtemah as possible. May Allah Subhanahu-wa-
Taala accept all of us for the cause of this great work of Deen
and make us successful in the life and the hereafter.
AAMEEN!
