Mr. Harold Samhat was also recognized for his personal achievements and his dedication to the community. He has been a successful businessman and a prominent contributor to the community, as a board member of the Arab American National Museum, for a number of years.

Another speaker at the dinner, Father Jeffrey Day, who was representing the Catholic church, made some important remarks, reflecting on the new Pope and how his appointment sparked peaceful dialouge between Muslims and Christians.
While the IHW has served as a spiritual home to many, it has also provided care to the needy on many occasions, through food assistance, child care, clothing and occasionally cash assistance to those less fortunate.

Islamic House of Wisdom Successfully Celebrates Fundraising Dinner
Dearborn Heights, MI, April 28, 2013 -- Islamic House of Wisdom celebrated its semi-annual fundraising dinner successfully Sunday, attracting more than 400 officials, dignitaries, supporters, volunteers, members and friends from different faiths and nationalities.
The event, which began with recitation of the Holy Quran, included presentations, awards and celebration of the wonderful programs and services Islamic House of Wisdom has been providing to the community.
Islamic House of Wisdom Board of Directors Chairman, Dave Abdullah welcomed participants and thanked IHW's spiritual leader Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi, the IHW Board of Directors, volunteers, staff and the community for their unwavering support of Islamic House of Wisdom.
Abdullah said, imam Elahi and a group of dedicated members of the community established Islamic House of Wisdom as an answer to a great community aspiration, and today, it is one of the largest Muslim institutions in the State of Michigan, a leader in intra-inter faith dialogue, a force in fighting Islamophobia and a champion for peace, justice and freedom.
During the event, the IHW board recognized five people for their achievement and service to the community.
Dearborn High student, Ollie Ajami was recognized for his athletic, educational and high grades achievements.
Dr. Tallal Turfe was recognized for his national and international achievements. His dedication to the unity of the community and his work for peace and justice through his books, lectures and outreach.

Hajji Mariam Osman was recognized for unwavering support of IHW. She has served IHW with utmost dedication, sincerity and devotion, participating in every way possible while promoting the mission of IHW.
Imam Elahi thanked participants for their attendance and reflected on the constructive role of a mosque in the community and the role of the Islamic House of Wisdom as a spiritual organization. "The main function of this House is the remembrance of Allah," he said. "That is to be aware of His presence in our lives, to make our life the life of zakerin (those who are awake) not the life of ghafelin, (those negligent and asleep)."
Also, he said indeed dhikr is not consisting of only saying a few words as lip service, but to establish the attributes of Allah in our souls. To remember Allah means to remember that He is of peace, justice, love and forgiveness. He is of generosity, unity, and is caring for His creation. The goal is to apply Allah's attributes in our life.
World problems of today from chaos, confusion, crime, corruption, war, terrorism, poverty, racism, hate and hostility are out absence of spiritual awareness! All of these problems caused by people without faith or by those who turn their faith into fanaticism.
The Quran says:
وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن مَّنَعَ مَسَاجِدَ اللّهِ أَن يُذْكَرَ فِيهَا اسْمُهُ وَسَعَى فِي خَرَابِهَا
"And who are more unjust than those who prevent the name of Allah from being mentioned in His mosques and strive toward their destruction". 2:114
The faithful support the Mosque because the mosque serves the community and any service to the community is a service to Allah, which is the purpose of our life, he said.
"Islamic House of Wisdom is open seven days a week ready to serve the community: to defend the truth; to stand for justice and for human dignity; to go to any meeting at any time and any place; and to take any measures to clarify the position of our faith and our community on any misconception and any politicized misunderstanding that may occur", Imam Elahi said.
"We give our services with complete care and humility. As the Imam, I focus on my faith and mission, not my personal comfort and such. In fact its an honor to sacrifice our comfort, respect and prestige to serve our faith and community " he said.
Imam Elahi called the faithful community members to use part of their Khums money to support the services of the area mosques and get credit both from God and the government tax obligation. He mentioned that more than 10 of the greatest Islamic marjas have authorized IHW to receive khums for its educational, social and family services.
Daniel Paletko, the mayor of Dearborn Heights, some community members who are running for election and local activists made remarks about the importance of participating in the coming elections including, Mike Sareini, Mo Berro, Susan Dabaja, Zeinab Hussein and Jane Badlow. Hajj Marwan Houry was the Master of Ceremonies throughout the dinner event.
Mayor Paletko said, "As Mayor, I am so grateful and believe the community is blessed to have the Islamic House of Wisdom located within the City of Dearborn Heights. The mosque and Imam Mohammad Elahi have been in the forefront of inter-faith cooperation and has lead the Metropolitan Detroit area in fostering inter-religious discussion.
I am
so glad and feel blessed to have the friendship of Imam Elahi and the
membership of the Islamic House of Wisdom. May God bless all of you! "
Fr. Jeffry Day representing the Catholic church made some important remarks, reflecting on the emphases of the new Pope on necessity of dialogue between Muslims and Christians!

Muslim Girl Scouts form strong friendships through faith
Thursday, 03.21.2013, 05:39pm: Arab American News
DEARBORN HEIGHTS — The Muslim Girl Scouts troop of southeast Michigan could be one of the largest scout groups in the region with its more than 250 members according to a report. Its members reside in different cities in the region, and meet once a week. They also take trips during the summer.
Janan Wutwut, who has been a member for years says the group has brought her closer to her faith, and she wouldn’t know as much about Islam as she does today if she hadn’t joined. Wutwut says over the years she’s met friends through the group she wouldn’t have met otherwise, and formed close friendships.
“I’ve been in the group for years, and a lot of us have watched each other grow up. It’s more than just a girl scout troop. We’re forming strong friendships and learning a lot about each other. I’ve learned so much about my faith as well,” Wutwut said.
There are about 25 volunteers who dedicate their time to leading the group, and include parents, college students among others.
Muslim Girl Scouts at the Islamic House of Wisdom where they performed a reenactment of Hajj ritual proceduresRana Alaouie, who’s a volunteer and has two daughters in the group says its members are taught to be confident and encouraged to take on leadership roles when they get older. “We want them to be strong and take on leadership roles in the future,” Alaouie said. She says the girls are taught about different issues such as bullying. “We teach them that bullying is wrong and Islam teaches us to love one another,” she said. Through the group the girls are embracing American culture and their faith.
Hawra Yassine, 21, and a volunteer was never a part of the group growing up, but wishes she was because of the opportunities and friendships its members form.
“It’s a wonderful thing to watch these girls mature and grow,” she said.
Last Friday the group delivered a powerful performance before hundreds at the Islamic House of Wisdom’s interfaith event here where they reenacted the ritual procedures of Hajj through prayers and songs.
Sayyed Najah Al-Huseini spoke about the philosophy of Hajj, from unity to purification of the soul. Imam Elahi welcomed the guests and spoke about the future role and responsibility of the Girl Scouts. Imam Elahi said that Girl Scouts is about love through action, and service and sacrifice for the sake of others. Imam Elahi wished the girl scouts a joyful journey in life, a journey beautified with two words: love and action. At the end, he thanked Hajja Amal Mazeh and other Muslim and non-Muslim leaders of the girls organization.
“It’s a great experience, when we have our own kids we want them to be in it,” Wutwut said.
If residents are interesting in participating with the group, they can contact the Religious Relationship Committee at interfaith@gssem.org.

Muslim Girl Scouts Interfaith Event at Islamic House of Wisdom
Last Friday was a day of faith, sincerity, service and love at the Islamic House of Wisdom.
In a powerful performance, the Muslim Girl Scouts of Michigan presented to participants of the occasion the ritual procedures of hajj through prayers, reenactment and nasheed songs.
Sayyed Najah Al-Huseini spoke about the philosophy of hajj, from unity to purification of the soul.
Imam Elahi welcomed the guests and spoke about the future role and responsibility of the Girl Scouts. He stated, "Wisdom is God's greatest gift to humanity, sent to us directly through the light of reason and indirectly through revelation was sent to Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammad".
Imam noted that the flower of Girl Scouts of America was product of a woman of wisdom. Beginning 101 years ago, a lady named Juliette Low invited 18 girls in the city of Savannah to teach them powerful principles of wisdom, courage, commitment, character, confidence, compassion, justice and love! Today, there are more than 3 million girls in this organization.
Continuing, Imam said that Girl Scouts is about love through action. It's about service and sacrifice for the sake of others. A perfect model of Girl scouts in Islam would be Zainab (as). She served the cause of freedom, justice and truth with maximum devotion, determination and discipline.
To understand and appreciate the position of girls in Islam, look at the Quran and the life of Prophet Mohammad and his family (pbuh). More than 1400 years ago in the time when people were ignorantly upset upon news of a baby girl, the Quran mentioned girls before mentioning boys!
He grants females to whom He wills, and grants males to whom He wills. 42:49
More than 1000 years ago Imam Sadiq (as) said: The girls are blessings, the boys are gifts, blessing brings more reward but gift brings more responsibility.
حسنات والبنون نعمة فانما يثاب علي الحسنات ويسال عن النعمة البنات
Imam Elahi wished the Girl Scouts a joyful journey in life, a journey beautified with two words: love and action.
At the end, he thanked Hajja Amal Mazeh and other Muslim and non-Muslim leaders of the girls organization.

Sayedah Rabab thanked Imam Elahi and the board members for their hospitality and spoke about the foundation's educational services to the youth in Lebanon and some other parts of the Middle East.
In his address, imam Elahi called Imam Musa Sadr one of the most charismatic characters and leaders of the world in the 20th century. A man of God with a mind full of wisdom and vision, a heart full of love and passion and a life full of service and achievement.
Speaking about the interfaith approaches of Imam Musa Sadr, Imam Elahi honored the openness, understanding, patience and passion of Imam Sadr for unity, cooperation and peaceful coexistence of all people regardless of their religious, race and nationality backgrounds.
Mentioning the current war and bloody violence in the Middle East, Imam Elahi concluded that the path to peace according to Imam Sadr would be dialogue and diplomatic communication and not through military and bloodshed. Those who reject dialogue and choose the path of death and destruction are responsible for the tragic pain and poverty of the people in the region.

IHW honors life and work of Kay Siblani
Thursday, 01.24.2013, 08:59pm- Arab American News
DEARBORN HEIGHTS — On Sunday, Jan. 20 the Islamic House of Wisdom here honored the life and work of Kay Siblani, the longtime executive editor of The Arab American News since 1984, when the paper first launched.
IHW members held a breakfast in honor of Siblani, who passed away on Jan. 1 this year.
Following the recitation from the Qur’an, Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi started the service honoring the life and legacy of Siblani, noting that she served the Muslim and Arab American communities for nearly three decades.
He discussed her role as an editor, and her commitment to raising awareness on the health issues concerning Muslim and Arab Americans.
He praised her book, Islam and that Muslim Patient, a guide on treating Muslims in American hospitals, saying it was educational. The guide was written more than a decade ago to remove misconceptions about Islam and Muslims.
Imam Elahi says the book helped breakdown stereotypes about Islam. Some of the stereotypes include misconceptions that Islam is a religion of violence, radicalism, and that women are oppressed under it.
The book also touches on many elements about Islam such as prayer and fasting rituals.
“This book carries valuable points and is very helpful for doctors and nurses in the hospitals who may deal with Muslim patients and the issue of cultural sensitivity,” Imam Elahi said.
He prayed before the crowd asking God to bless Siblani’s soul, calling her a “sincere servant of the community and humanity.”
He also expressed sympathy to Osama Siblani, publisher of The Arab American News, and the paper’s staff, and wished them the best as they carry on the legacy she left behind.
Life & Services of Kay Siblani Honored at the IHW
January 20, 2013- Members of IHW dedicated the Service & Breakfast to the soul of late Kay Siblani, the executive editor of the Arab American News who passed away recently on January 1st.
Following the recitation from the Quran, Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi started the service honoring the life and legacy of a woman who served our faith and the community for the last three decades.
Imam spoke about Kay's publication and especially her book on "Islam and the Muslim Patient" as an educational document which was written 15 years ago to remove misconceptions about Islam and Muslims.
In her book, late Kay stood against Islamophobic propaganda proving that Islam is not a religion of violence, radicalism and oppression against women. She explained the main articles of the Islamic faith such as prayer, zakat, fasting, hajj and clarified many other concepts explaining that Islam is a way of life and a religion of rationality and flexibility. This book carries valuable points and is very helpful for doctors and nurses in the hospitals who may deal with Muslim patients and the issue of cultural sensitivity.
Imam recited and reflected on some Quranic verses regarding gender roles and responsibility and equality of male and female in the site of Allah in terms of rewards and punishments. The Quran judges people based on their characters and actions and not their gender or family ties. This is why the Quran admires the wife of the Pharaoh while it condemns the wife of Prophet Noah and Lut!
Imam Elahi mentioned that for the first time in the history of Islamic organizations in the area, IHW voted for a lady to be the vice chair of the board of directors.
At the end, again the imam prayed to God to bless the soul of a sincere servant of the community and humanity, Kay Siblani and expressed deep sympathy of IHW members to Mr. Osama Siblani, the editor and to the entire staff of the Arab American News. He wished them all the best in continuity of Kay's legacy and achievements.
At the end some of IHW members and participants took a group photo as a memory for Kay remembrance ceremony.
