We pray to Allah (s.w.t.) to grant Murabbi a long healthy and successful life, Aameen.
We are also grateful to the four Care Taker Committee members for respectfully accepting to take over the Jamaat from the outgoing officials; we wish to assure the Committee of our full support and co-operation in managing the affairs of the Mwanza Jamaat to the required standards.
The message we wish to convey to the Mwanza Jamaat Community members is that of the importance of Unity, Harmony and Caring for each other especially during this difficult period we are going through. We pray to Allah (s.w.t.) for the Committee to succeed in their vision and aspirations and make progress for the betterment of all the Community members.
