  1. Dear Brothers & Sisters,

    From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank you for, and congratulate you upon, the magnificently civilized and noble work you are doing on behalf of all Muslims, be they here in Canada or anywhere else in the world. Yours is the authentic peaceful and civilized face of Islam. God bless you all for your splendid services and the enduring institutional development that make us all proud.

    Ibrahim
