Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Yes his title is rector and I wouldn't dare question a person of his knowledge on why they chose that name. I'm a warehouse manager at my work but that's not a muslim title ? It's a university after all not a Madressa.

Alhamdolillah this site is an Ahle Sunnat site and the majority of it's members are the same. We do from time to time get others on here as it is a public forum where everyone is welcome. There are plenty of members here from Blackburn as I'm sure you will find out. I would suggest you go to the introduce yourself thread and make a post there. Fi Amanillah.

Suhayb, are their plenty of Somali brothers and sisters in N Zealand, and how far is Somalia from NZ ? Just didnt realise how multi cultured NZ was ? Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa BarakatuhuThere are quite a few Somalians here. Unfortunately we have been guilty of not reaching out to them and as a lot pray in Wahabi Masjids we presumed they where the same I was pleasantly suprised to see them at the programme in Hamilton, and a little ashamed that I have made assumptions regarding these wonderful people. Maulana Mukadam made a good point that we owe a lot to these people the native Africans. As these where the first people to offer the Muslims shelter in Abysinnia. Insha Allah we will get to know more about these people in the future. We are quite multi cultural in NZ although not everyone gets along. We have a lot of refugees here which unfortunately some people don't like, there is a certain level of racism here as in most parts of the world. Fi Amanillah.

There is a few of us Sunnis here Alhamdolillah. A lot of us are Mureeds of Ghazi e Millat, Alhamdolillah. We do struggle a bit here and the Wahabi's are quiet dominant I think. Insha Allah with Pir Sahabs guidance we will become stronger.
Fi Amanillah

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa BarakatuhuSadly our guest is leaving us today for South Africa. Maulana Ahmed Mukadam has left us with some very inspiring words and a strong message to act upon them, to let our actions speak louder than our words. Here's some more photo's of the last few programmes. Ranui Masjid (Sadly this has fallen into the hands of Wahabis although Alhamdolillah we still have a foothold there through regular Milad mehfils)Another shot of the MasjidMaulana Ahmed Mukadam delivers hid bayan

Mashallah, Suhayb ..1 question though. The Milad-un-Nabi mehfils, do the wahhabis listen, or do they not visit the mosque when they happen ?

Wa'alaykum 'Assalam wa Rahmatullahi wa BarakatuhuThey normally run away. Ranui Masjid has a Wahabi Imam but he doesn't stay when we have programmes he leaves the mosque for us.

Last couple of photo's from Maulana Mukadams farewell function. Mohammed Imtyaz Ibnul (my Brother in Law) reciting a NaatHadrat Maulana Ahmed Mukadam delivers his last bayanI hope you have enjoyed the photos This has been a very successful series of programmes for Rabbi ul Awwal Alahmdolillah. Maulana Ahmed Mukadam delivered some excellent lectures and left us all with a lot to think about and more importantly to act upon Insha Allah. The Ummah of NZ are indebted to Hadrat Sahab for his sacrifice in coming here and we pray that Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) showers his blessings upon him and his family in this world and the hereafter, through the wasila of His Beloved Messenger Muhammad Mustafa (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam). Ameen.
