The Milad un-Nabi programme included lectures by Brother Arek Miernik in Polish, Brother Mahmood Dhalla in English, and Dr Umeidi in Farsi. There were poetry and Qaseeda recitations by local Arab reciters.
The event attracted 80 people including Poles, Arabs and Iranians, and several ambassadors of Muslim countries. Representatives of the Sunni Tatar community also attended.
Sayyid Aliraza Naqvi, Head of Islamic Education, commented: “It is an honour for us to be able to support the propagation of the teachings of the Ahlul Bayt (as). Inshallah we intend to continue this support into the publication of a book on Karbala, an Islamic magazine in Polish, and then a book on ethics and spirituality.”
