The struggles one faces in this life are countless. We all aim to better ourselves as we grow older, yet are constantly faced with trials that test our emotions, patience, and faith. For some, those trials may lead to frustration that can often be taken out on parents, siblings, spouses, or friends. Others may harbor feelings of sadness or disappointment that result in a lack of spiritual motivation or effort. Some might be angry and consequently behave in an immoral manner. And others may simply be looking to be reminded of the meaning life holds…and to spiritually revive themselves on this journey of life.

As our beloved Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) once said, “truly in the body there is a morsel of flesh which, if it be the whole, all the body is whole and which, if it be diseased, all of it is diseased. Truly it is the heart.” [Muslim]

RU-MSA ALM & SOS Present:

Insha’Allah next Thursday (11/29) is the last football game of the season and it is a home game against Louisville (for those who have been following RU football, this is their biggest competitor in the Big East conference).

Ever wonder how or when the world is going to end? Will it be just like any other day, or will it end in a catastrophe? Will it be this very year as goes the Mayan prophecy or is that just a myth? What exactly happens after the world ends anyways? Where do our bodies and souls go?

Come join RU-MSA at the last general event of the semester with guest speaker Dr. Islam Elfayoumi to demystify the coming Signs of the Day of Judgment! Get a glimpse of the transition from this world to the hereafter and an insight to how we can prepare ourselves for that day.

This is an event you don’t want to miss! Don’t forget to bring your friends, and spread the word! FREE dinner will be served, catering provided by Douglass Pizza! Hope to see you all there inshaAllah!!

8pm on Tuesday November 27, 2012 @ Center Hall on Busch Campus

An RU-MSA Roots event:

Why is Islam against homosexuality?
Why does Islam combine all the gods into one single God?
What does Islam have to say about Jesus?
If Islam is a peaceful religion, why are many Muslims violent?
Was Islam spread by the sword?
Why aren’t there anymore prophets?
Why do Muslims pray to a black box?
How do you prove that there is life after death?
Why does Islam oppress women?

Ask your Questions. Get the Answers. Know the Truth.

WE DARE YOU.

It’s that time of the year again! Get into the Eid spirit and join us for MSA’s BIGGEST event of the semester!

As college students, our education is always priority. We stress about exams and focus on maintaining our GPA but sometimes neglect our responsibilities as Muslims. We think that we will turn our attention to our deen once we are accomplished and have reached a certain point in life. But is there a way we can attain success in our deen and in this duniya?

“Improve your secret and private life, and Allah will improve your public and social life. Make matters well between you and Allah, and Allah will make matters well between you and people. Work for the Hereafter and Allah will be enough for you in your worldly concerns” [Imam Sufyaan AthThawri, rahimahuAllah]
