Who is Abdur Raheem Green?

Abdur Raheem Green, formerly Anthony Green was born to British parents and raised as a Catholic in a wealthy, upper class family. As a young man Anthony began a period of study and intense searching eventually rejecting his Catholic faith and priveleged background to accept Islam in 1987.

Brother Abdur Raheem is an internationally recognised speaker on Islam and an expert in the field of da'wah (Islamic propogation). He has delivered countless lectures and seminars to audiences around the globe. He was a regular speaker at the famous speakers corner in Hyde Park, London. Abdur Raheem has made invaluable contributions in refuting the Christian missionary menace sweeping the Muslim world. Shaykh Abdur Raheem has worked in da'wah related activities at London's Central Mosque and has appeared on many TV shows. He has recently launched a new da'wah organisation based in London with the aim to bring about a new era in da'wah.

The Call for Unity

Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah), this coming Sunday, 21st June, we're going to have a special get together with a special speaker! We have been given the amazing opportunity to host a talk with Bro. Muhammad Umar from the UK-based Ramadhan Foundation, so we're sharing this opportunity with you lovely peeps!

Do you think Unity that goes across the board; regardless of race, religion, or culture, is important and relevant today? Can it bring a positive effect on the world? Or is it just a utopic idea created by idealists? Whatever your thoughts on this issue, we'd like you to share it with us this very Sunday! And if you have any questions, our guest speaker will be more than willing to answer them. The details are in the poster so hope to see you all this Sunday insyaAllah (God willing)!

P/s: This Sunday's VENUE will be DIFFERENT than our normal Hangout as it'll be in Duta Nusantara (map). When you are there, tell the guard that you are going to the Duta Nusantara Clubhouse. Anything, just give Cat a buzz.

P/ss: Refreshments will be provided so PLEASE RSVP ASAP so that we can gauge the numbers. :) Also, IF (no obligations seriously!) you'd like to add something to the table, you're more than welcome to BUT due to the requests of the Duta Nusantara management, we have to keep it clean and simple so finger foods would be ideal. Thanks!
