Ayatullah Bashir Najafi was kind enough to allocate a separate time for a meeting at his house. I got chance to sit with him almost for 30 minutes during which we spoke about the different activities of the World Federation of KSIMC and its members. He had a huge appreciation for the community and the variety of work carried out by the organisation.
He then explained how he was able to reach the level of ijtihad and marajaiyyat during his long stay in Najaf. He was pleased to know that Islamic Education was led by the Hawza students within the community and gave a gift of a large number of his books for further readings.
I also got the opportunity to attend the lectures of Ayatullah Ishaq Fayyaz and Ayatullah Sayyed Hakim and managed to meet them for a short amount of time.
The other scholars whose lectures were well attended were Shaykh Baqir Irwani, Shaykh Hadi Aal e Raadi, Shaykh Muhammad Sanad, Shaykh Jawahiri, Sayyid Sabzwari and Sayyid Ali Akbar Hairi. Majority of the teachings was held in Madrasat al Garaviyah of haram.

Alhamdolillah! In the last 22 years World Islamic Network has grown from a small organization distributing free Islamic books to a Satellite Channel reaching more than 33 countries. By the grace of Allah (s.w.t) many people have gained guidance and true knowledge of Islam through their books; and their Television channel is serving the same purpose today. May Allah (s.w.t) and the Ahlul Bayt (a.s) increase their taufiq to serve and guide our community and our society.
On Thursday 20th June 2019, the first ever North American Muballigheen Seminar was held by The World Federation Islamic Education department in collaboration with NASIMCO.
