Paintball aftermath

Alhamdulillah our first paintball experience went well today, with 24 participating brothers making two teams, i think everyone was exhausted by the time we left and everyone has at least one bruise they can show off to their families, i have heaps including 4 on my head but as the supervisor said 'this is an extreme sport', so i say a few bruises afterward doesn't spoil the great fun that one has painting your opponents orange.

thankyou to the organising brothers jazahumallahu khayran, and thankyou to the venue staff, who provided a safe and fun experience for us.

eid mubarak

Alhamdulillah wa salatallahu ala muhammad wa 'ala alihi wa sahbihi.
to my brothers and sisters in islam asalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuhu
to other viewers asalaamu 'ala manitaba al huda

Eid mubarak wa taqabalallahu minna wa minkum

as you can see our blog has been neglected since our blog hero and example of the best of us, abul-layth hafithahallah, has left the comfort of his family and homeland in order to seek beneficial knowledge, may Allah azza wa jal make us all sincere to Him and forgive our sins and shortcomings and make us all saaliheen.

inshaallah i will update as best i can and as regularly as i can, again our intention here is to keep our people aware of what we are doing down here, and to bring attention and support to our dawah, without diverting attention from the main ASWJ website, may Allah grant us success and reward accordingly His deserving servants.

watch this space as inshaallah shortly we will present:
  • updated prayer times at the musallah
  • mind body spirit festival report including a video of the event
  • annual camp announcement (1-4 jan 2009 in Sydney)
  • paintball skirmish this weekend 12 dec (contact us soon as deposit is required tomorrow)

jazakumallahu khayran wasalaamu alaykum.
