President Nashiru and his companions paid a visit to Islamic Culture Center of New York to meet with gracious and kind imam named Shamsi Ali. President Nashiru and Imam Shamsi Ali discussed about Global Deaf Muslim, the Deaf Muslims in NYC, and how Islamic Culture Center of New York can work with GDM to outreach to Deaf Muslim Yorkers. President Nashiru wants to have a place in New York City for Deaf Muslims to attend to pray, to discuss Islam, to receive Islamic education, and socialize with members of Ummah.
The meeting was fruitful and Nashiru with his companions enjoyed the beautiful mosque, the discussion of Islam with new believers, and the time spent at the Center. Nashiru and Imam Shamsi Ali looked forward to work together for Deaf in Islam. After the visitation, Nashiru and his companions attended Arab Culture Festival at West Brooklyn.
