Youth Friendsgiving Dinner

What a great night we had at our first annual Friendsgiving Dinner on Saturday. Our youth members organized their first Friendsgiving dinner inviting Muslim youths in the valley. We had youth Muslim brothers & sisters, and UNLV MSA members. The atmosphere was great, the night was so relaxing, people were friendly, and everyone had a great time. The food that was provided was like a warm hug on cold winter nights.

We would like to thank all guests and our esteemed speaker Imam Mujahid Ramadan. Also, a special thanks to our catering volunteers who prepared delicious meals for the event.

A Hadith Commentary – What Brings Salvation

Tonight, we  hosted Dr. Ali Shehata for one of the lecture series organized by Silver Sage Foundation. Dr. Ali had a commentary/discussion on one of the “40 hadith of Imam an-Nawawi.” There were guests from community members. We want to thank both Dr Ali for the wonderful discussion+talk and the guests for their participation. Everyone was engaged and  enjoyed the interaction.

Below is the hadith we had for a commentary tonight.

Abu Malik al-Ashari reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Purity is half of faith, and the praise of Allah fills the scale. Glorification and praise fill up what is between the heavens and the earth. Prayer is a light, charity is proof, and patience is enlightenment. The Quran is a proof for you or against you. All people go out early in the morning and sell themselves, either setting themselves free or ruining themselves.”  (Muslim)

NOAH’S PUDDING EVENT

On August 19th, the Silver Sage Foundation’s Women Association hosted an event where they invited the women of Epiphany to Noah’s Pudding Event in order to serve Noah’s pudding to all attendees and share the spirit of peace and collaboration.

It was a great evening, with a strong sense of sisterhood pervading the entire space. We are grateful for the opportunity to spend time with our sisters. Hoping to reunite again under the same umbrella to celebrate and appreciate our unity!

History of Noah’s Pudding

In anecdotal history, it is claimed that when Noah’s Ark came to rest on Mount Ararat, Prophet Noah’s family celebrated with a special dish. Since their supplies were nearly exhausted, what was left (primarily grains, dried fruits and the like) was cooked together to form a pudding, what is now called ashure.
