Um Ibrahim
Alhamdulilah :)
Asalaamu alaykum all,
I got this as email from a friend and just wanted to post it here. If you live in the U.S, please sign the petition. You do have to register to sign it but it doesn't take even a minute.
Support the movement of having Muslim holidays recognized in the school year, throughout the United States of America.
With the growing population of Muslims in the United States of America (including first, second, third, and fourth generation) we believe it is high time that Muslim holidays are recognized by schools throughout this nation. Unfortunately many Muslim families are forced to choose between their children's education and their religious obligations. Muslim school chenildren and staff deserve the same benefits afforded to the followers of other faiths. We call on President Obama to support this petition and advance the inclusiveness of our great nation."
