Salamalaikum everyone!
ISNU will be providing post-election resources for all Muslim students, regardless of political stance. E-Board members are available for your thoughts and concerns, as well as to provide opportunities to best facilitate your response; please do not hesitate to reach out. Thursday and Friday, ISNU will be hosting an unstructured safe space for Muslims on campus in the Sacred Space including tea, movies, board games, and optional dialogue to provide a collective community space for students to process and voice their thoughts and reactions. Start times for both days will be announced shortly. Hope to see you there!
If you are interested in participating in a social justice focused response, Northeastern Crossing will be working with Sticky Rice Thursday from 6PM-8PM in International Village to host a workshop combating anti-Muslim violence. If you plan to attend, register below! Don’t worry, we’ll still be in the Sacred Space when you get back.

Friday, we will also have our weekly group walk-over to ISBCC for their Friday halaqa, followed by our unstructure for the evening.
Weekly Updates:
Friday Prayers:
There will be NO Jum’ah prayer on campus this Friday, as the university will be closed. However, ISBCC will still have Jum’ah, with the Khutbah beginning at 1 PM, InshaAllah.
Deen and Dine:
We will have Deen and Dine on Monday in the Sacred Space at 6pm, InshaAllah. We hope to see you then!
Friday Halaqas at ISBCC:
As a group we will be going to ISBCC Halaqas every Friday evening at 7pm. If you want to participate, meet outside International Village at 6:30 and we will walk together to the mosque. Contact Osmaan at shah...@husky.neu.edu for more info.
Continued Giving with ISNU:
ISNU is working to establish an annual tradition of supporting a selected charity year-round. Inshallah we will be holding a vote at Deen and Dine in the near future. If you have a suggestion for a charity, fill out the attached Google Form and we’ll add them to the ballot!

Qur’an Circle:
We will be holding our weekly Qur’an Circle this Friday from 5pm - 6pm in 210 Behrakis. This semester, we’re hoping to memorize Surah Ar-Rahman, so we hope to see you there!
Group Fasting:
We will hold group fasts on Mondays and Thursdays, just like the Sunnah. We will break fast at Deen and Dine and at Qur’an class. Each person who successfully completes a fast from sunrise until sunset (suhoor is not mandatory, but encouraged) will receive a ticket. At the end of the semester, all the tickets will be placed into a basket and one will be drawn randomly. The name that is pulled out receives a prize. We add up all the fasts and see how many we can gather throughout the semester.
Pillars:
Make sure to continue one-on-one bonding with your mentor/mentee, and stay tuned for our next group event inshallah!
