MUSLIMS FOR PROGRESSIVE VALUES STUDENT CLUB!

We can connect students from the University of Ottawa and Carleton University to start a student club on their campus. If you are interested, please contact us at khansalter@rogers.com. There are several students who are interested at this time but need the support of more progressive Muslim students to make it happen. We are also on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=116272231721512.

 WE BELIEVE ALLAH SUPPORTS THE 99 PERCENT.

And Muslims for Progressive Values Canada lends its support to the Occupy Wall St. movement and as it spreads across our nation from coast to coast - we stand shoulder to shoulder with our fellow citizens mobilizing Occupy Toronto, Occupy Ottawa, Occupy Winnipeg, Occupy Calgary, Occupy Edmonton, Occupy Vancouver and everywhere else. We affirm our commitment to non violent social, economic and environmental justice. We believe that the full self-realization of all people, in a safe and sustainable world, is a prerequisite for freedom, civility, and peace. We support efforts for universal health care, universal public education, the protection of our environment, and the eradication of poverty.

“Stand up firmly for justice, witnesses for God, even if it is against yourselves, your parents and your relatives, and whether the case is of a rich person or a poor person.” The Holy Quran, 4:135.

Salaams/peace.
