Event Details

Theme: "Connecting to the Heart of Islam: Doorway to Nobility and Ascension" Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim "Glory be to Allah Who transported His servant by night from the sacred Masjid (at Makkah) to the distant Masjid (in Jerusalem) whose surrounding territory We have blessed."(Al-Qur'an 17:1) During the great Night Journey and Ascension (Isra & Mi'raj), the holy Prophet Muhammad (saws) was transported in an instant from Makkah to Jerusalem and from there through the heavens to the presence of Allah (swt); and then he was returned. For the Prophet (saws), this ascension was a divine gift and an unparalleled miracle.

Hosted By

ISLAMIC STUDIES &RESEARCH ASSOCIATION (ISRA)



The Islamic Studies and Research Association (ISRA) was founded by the grace of Allah, by Syed Zain al-Abedin in 1987, in the United States of America. Its members have worked informally through various, local, regional, and national organizations on several projects to enhance and spread Islamic knowledge. ISRA was revived in 1998 as an international organization through the work of many prominent Muslims from a variety of schools of thoughts and perspectives. Since its revival, ISRA has made remarkable progress in presenting Islam as a comprehensive deen based upon islam, iman, and ihsan (tasawwuf). Over a short period of time, the organization has come to enjoy many great successes and its appeal is steadily growing on an international level. The affairs of ISRA are guided by the concept of shura through a council named the Irshad Council. The Irshad Council consists of a working committee and a board of distinguished scholars and shaykhs who serve as Islamic advisors to the council.
