(Speech made by Haider Lone, President NZMA)
Respected Moulana Sheik Mohammed Airot
Brothers and Sisters in Islam.
Assalamoalaikum WRWB
We thank Allah SWT for providing this day after the holy month of Ramadhan. We thank Allah for the opportunity to do ibadat in the month of Ramadhan.
This is not a day for speeches but we do need to talk about some things as we do not gather in very large numbers very often.
NZMA is made up of 3 branches and mosques. Ponsonby Jama Mosque, BHB Islamic Centre and Ranui Mosque. Masha-allah in all these mosques we have 5 times daily prayers and we have madressah for the children. NZMA has also taken the responsibility of making all janaaza(funeral)arrangements. We have very good ghusul fascilities at Ponsonby.
NZMA is the largest single affiliated body in FIANZ. In all the mosques, improvements are made as an ongoing matter.
Brothers and sisters on behalf of the NZMA committee and branch committees I extend to you a hearty welcome and thank you for your continued support to NZMA.
I thank the management and staff of this O’RYANS stadium and the UNITEC as a whole. They have provided us with excellent facilities for our salaat.
There are some gifts and refreshments after the salaat. Please let your children enjoy them.
With these words I thank you and wish you and your families Eid Mubarak
Jazzak-Allah
