Ilmfest 2009 Update

ilmseeker · 02-03-2009, 10:19 AM

Assalaam Alaykum!

Alhumdulillah since Qabeelat Nurayn found out we were blessed to host Ilmfest 2009, the venue team has been working rigorously to secure a venue and dates for Ilmfest. Originally the plan was to hold Ilmfest in spring 2009 or at latest early summer, but due to many circumstances (speaker/hall unavailability) out of our control it is not possible to have it during these times.

In our communication with AlMaghrib HQ the decision was reached to hold Ilmfest 2009 in early fall in sha Allah. Fall 2009 was chosen because the speakers will be available, confirming a venue will be easier and it will be less likely to conflict with other conventions.

Currently we are working to narrow down our venue options and come to a solid conclusion soon. In sha Allah we will release more information as soon as we receive confirmation.

Jazak Allaah Khair
Ilmfest Shura
