I am very shocked to hear your problem...

There are many flaws in christianity, why would people still want to be christian...

i dont quite understand what u write in number (2), i think what u meant is sisters are removing their hijab so that they can socialise....:angryblue: ,
well some sisters are even wearing niqaab...

Suggestions:

1)Why dont you organise a camp where brothers can get together and another camp for sisters...

2) Have a room for brothers to pray together in your campus and another room for sisters...

3) regarding funds: you can maybe ask help from rich muslim community there..by explaining your problem or u can even ask from the muslim professors in your university...

having 25000 muslims under you is a very heavy responsibility.
I make dua that everything will be easy going for you...and that you remain strong and patient and my african bros and sis remain on the straight path...inshAllah

Why not have the organization have dues. If each person paid one dollar for membership you could have $ 25,000 to start with.
Why not have luncheon for benefits. Use the talents of the students. Let them cook and sell wares ( arts/cards/whatever). Have workshops or seminars and charge a small fee.
Have the students give back to the community. Let the community become aware that there is a group of Muslim students who give and give..and the leaders of the community will eventually become sponsers.

The sisters, I am getting the impression they want to catch a good Muslim brother...have socials but charge a small fee. Within the guidelines of Islam.

Our faith tells us to be practical and active.

u need companions. You need to pick the most pious of those who want to help you in your cause. Your knowledge needs to be very good, or if there is someone who has more wisdom pass it on.

You need to understand how prophets done it, and inshallah you will suceed. Remember your companions though, aswell as that you need a wife so that she can learn alot from you so she can be firm ground for the females, you need ur companions to do the same.

You need to pray during the third part of the night, and try to get as close to Allah(swt) as possible,otherwise you will just fall like the moors did. You need to understand that your responsability is very serious and your reward will not be unjust.

The sunnah should be your template.

Assalmoelaikoem warahmatullahi wbarakatuh,

Insha Allah i will explain to you what you have to do.

1) Ilm ( knowledge)

Knowledge is more important than money. gather some brothers and go to someone who can teach you islam. If there are Questions insha Allah you can also ask them on this forum. If you have knowledge you are able to spread this knowledge among others and insha Allah they will not convert to christianity.

2) 3amel ( Practise)

You have to practise the knowledge you have gained in your daily life. It's very important to be a good example to people when you are calling them to islam or you teach them the principles of islam.

3) Da3wa ( calling people to this knowledge ( deen el islaam) )

Call people with your knowledge which you have gained.

4) Sabr ( Patients)

Know my best brother to be patient in calling people to Allah. Do your best and Allah will help you.

Our prophet Sallalahu 3aleihi wassalem was one person, but alhamdullilah Allah is his helper. many became muslims and look around you how many muslims exist today.


What is knowledge?

1) Knowledge about Allah
2) Knowledge about the prophet
3) Knowledge of this deen with clear proofs


Wat is 3amal ( practise)?

It's practising this deen with pure intention for the sake of Allah. And you have to follow our prophet Sallalahu 3aleihi wassalem in practsing your religion.

1) Ighlaas ( Pure intntion for the sake of Allah)
2) El Mutaba3a ( Following our Prophet Muhammad Sallalahu 3aleihi wassalem)


May Allah help you, If you have Questions don't hesitate to ask. Also if you are able to gather money from your community and do Da3wa with this money.

Take care

Wassalmoelaikoem warahmatullahi wbarakatuh,

Imad

I like mirajmom's advice! The workshop or seminar idea is great...i'm not sure where you are located, but maybe if there are surrounding mosques, they could help. ALSO...you could invite some well known imams/sheiks to speak? i'm not sure how much that would cost...but you could charge a small admission fee.maybe have an islamic art gallery advertising it to all students (both muslim and non muslim of course) or if there are good anasheed groups, invite them to perform. there are really lots of options.

also...regarding the muslims converting to christianity...yes it happens...but only if the muslim isn't really educated /strong about their faith. a muslim who truely understands islam, will NEVER leave islam! :inshallah: christianity gets alot of converts, since christians tend to just tell you what you want to hear...
so the solution to that is just to try to organize a quran class, history/knowledge of islam, etc. i really don't know the best way of doing this, but my advice to you would be to explain your problem to an imam...since they are used to this type of thing.

I dont know what the sister was trying to point out here, but I have to remind us that this sort of "socializing" (i.e.: hanging out with men - which is not within the guidelines of Islaam), is very dangerous and is a sin - an imitation of the kuffaar, who have lost every sort of dignity and moral values in their society today.

Islaam tells us to be practical and active but within the guidelines of its laws, which are the most virtuous and pure in the world, for most people know not!

Look at the results of this form of unrestrained "socializing" in the West, and quick you will come to realise that it makes you feel pity for these people, and they think - (they don't think at all, unfortunately) - that they have reached the peak of civilization - (degradation, and in fact a deadend). Depression, Drugs, alcohol, prostitution, violence, kids killing their classmates (westerns have done their job well), not mentioning pedophelia and rape which have become a daily rutine in the west. These are the results when people abandon the valuable teachings of their Lord - Allaah swt (even though if not from Islaam I dont know where they could have obtained them anyway, from their altered Books certainly not).

[Sa'ud Al-Shreim dedicated his Friday sermon at Al-Haram Mosque to women in the West and in Islam and to the differences between the genders. Following are excerpts:
Sheik Al-Shreim: What (Western) countries did in reality, in order to liberate the woman was to turn her into contemptible merchandise in houses of whoring and abomination, into banal images in music videos or a seductive body for marketing goods and so on, in commercials which can only be marketed by a woman's body.

Complete liberation in the woman's issue is a beast ridden by the ignorant and credulous or those who lead others astray and sow seeds of confusion creating a breach in the social harmony of the Muslim country. Out of this window, the time bombs are thrown. Moreover, this is the door through which the Apple of Satan appears, because the word 'liberty' has a bewitching affect on common people, especially adolescent boys and girls.]

And we poor muslims look at them and think they are having a great life (I'm talking about those muslims that see the west only on their TV and other sources of informations), we do not see the plague that has befallen them to take heed and thank Allaah swt and seek His help and protection from such a state.

We have to learn Islaam first from the pure Source, that is the Qur'an and the authentic Sunnah, which is free from these immoral and misguiding teachings, imply it ourselves first and then teach it to others as mush as we can insha Allaah. That way we can hope for a betterment of our society, no matter whether we live in a muslim or non-muslim country. These people need the Light of Islaam, which is their escape from this misery and disorder.

May Allaah swt help us muslim first get ourselves right and then to be able to show others what they are missing in their life.

I ask for apology if I hurt anyone, for it was not my intention.

wasalaam.

Just some ideas that we used in the isoc at uni.

organise a dinner, stick to the rules and make is open and informal, invtie all you know and then slip in some dawah leaflets.

you could try to say salam to every brother you see on campus and smile and invite them to jummah. at the start of each year we used to direct all muslims to the jummah salat. We also used to put ads in the student union material.

Ramadhan is a good time. we used to do a big iftaar, as many muslims we could get on mass, in one place, together, hijabis, niqabis, beards/clean shaven, donesnt matter, the whole point was were were all together. This was really good, i remember in 2002 we had a student from new york come and join us every evening to learn about islam, we also offered food to passers by and many joined us to learn about islam.

At jummah salalt you could ask people to donate for dawah for the uni/school you are at.

Do you have a student union, in the uk we got some funding from them.

Try to encourage fellow muslims not to be tooooo judgemental of those that are going astray, try to encourage tem to return to the siratul mustaqem in a nice way.


rome wasn't built in a day, you cant do everything, but just try yur hardest, thats all Allah can ask of you, that and lats of dua ofcourse.

Salaam,

I was not clear when I stated to have socials for the young women who showed up on campus. Let me be clear. Have an opportuinity for the females to have a purpose for being on campus. Let them have dignity and want to learn...who knowns they may sign up for classes. I did not mean to socialize in mixed company. I was not entertaining a prenuptual gathering.

I would also say that in the main, sisters were in a seperate room close by when we has our socials.
We also had a space in Jummah for sisters too, even though only about 10 or so would turn up, thats probably because it was at the back of the brothers without a proper partition.
