Message from Imam Bassirou Lo

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

All praises are due to Allah, peace be upon His messenger Muhammad (s.a.w)

Dear brothers and sisters,

I would like to thank you for visiting the Murid Islamic community site. I hope that each one of you will learn something from it. I also hope it will shade light on the peacefulness of Islam, of his messenger, and the role the servant of the prophet has done in showing how one can be on the service of Allah without using violence, or destructing the peaceful living of innocent people. Whatever you will learn here about the life of our Master Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba (r.a.) ,(the Shaykh), you should follow it if you want to benefit from it.

The Shaykh wanted to clarify to humanity the true message Allah (s.w.a) sent through his messenger Mohammed (s.a.w) in the Holy Quran and the way the Prophet (s.a.w) lived on, which is narrated in the Sunnah. It is this teaching that the venerated Shaykh Mouhammadou AlMourtada Mbacke (“Shaykh Moutada”), Shaykh Ahmadou Bamba’ son, came here to deliver, reiterate and explain, because that is what he committed to his lord to fulfill. To help convey the message, a house of Islam project was initiated in 1994 and inaugurated in July 2001. You will find the different services provided by the house of Islam in this website.

Today this House of Islam is blooming like a morning flower that has just seen the sun. In order to keep this house alive until the judgment day, we need everyone’s support. The support could be material, financial, or professional. And Allah said in the surat AL-Baqqarah, 2:261 : “ The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allah, is as the likeness of a grain (of corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allah gives manifold increase to whom He pleases. And Allah is all-Sufficient for His creatures’ needs , All-Knower.”

May Allah bestow upon us his mercifulness and guide us to the right path.

As- salamou aleykoum

Bassirou Lo
