LETTER FROM<br />
SHURA<br />
W<br />
elcome to the very 1st and special edition of the<br />
Islamic Center Rolla Missouri (ICRM) annual magazine,<br />
The Message. ICRM had its humble beginning back<br />
in the year 1994 and by the grace of Allah, the Rolla Muslim community<br />
moved into its new building in the year 2011. This last year,<br />
we marked an important milestone for our community, the 20th year<br />
anniversary of our foundation. This is also a very gratifying and emotional<br />
time for those who have worked tirelessly to see the dream of a<br />
new Islamic center come true. This masjid is one of up to 3000 Islamic<br />
centers across America and its goal is to provide a convenient place<br />
of worship, interfaith dialogue, Islamic education and community<br />
outreach services. Located near the campus of the Missouri university<br />
of Science and technology (MS&T), the Islamic center hosts a diverse<br />
group of individuals, students and professionals, from many different<br />
countries around the world.<br />
The magazine provides a historical overview of the Islamic center and<br />
Contact<br />
its construction. It also details the ICRM structural organization, provided<br />
community and social services and the introduction to the available<br />
educational programs for adults and kids. Everyone is welcome<br />
to participate and help us grow as a strong community.<br />
Through the magazine, we intend to reach the Muslim and non-<br />
Contact<br />
Muslim community of greater Rolla region, introduce folks about what<br />
we have to offer the area and seek suggestions for our continued<br />
improvement. It is the time to embrace one another and make everyone<br />
feel welcome to the house of Allah. The previously conducted and<br />
future planned open house events at ICRM also hope to build bridges<br />
between different faiths and promote a culture of peace, inshaAllah<br />
(God willing). In the end, I also like to take the opportunity to thank all<br />
those who have spent their time and effort, contributing towards the<br />
preparation of this magazine.<br />
Thanks for your cooperation.<br />
