Assalamualaikum (Peace Be Upon You),

Hope you’re having a great day!

Welcome to the first issue of The MSA Times, A weekly newsletter where we update you, our lovely members on key events and updates happening at MSA as well as give you a Simple Sunnah (traditions and practices of the Prophet PBUH) that takes 2 minutes or less to fulfill and have immense rewards. We will also be sharing with you some Muslim news from around the world that we think you might find of value. Included will be the prayer times for the week so that we can all pray Jama‘ah for the times that we are on campus InshaAllah.

 Simple Sunnah

Say Bismillah before starting (literally) anything. We hope you are able to put this Sunnah to use and gain immense rewards. We would love to hear about how you put this Sunnah into practice and can't wait to hear from all of you!
