Assalaamu Alaikum Waragmatullahie Wabarakaatuh

The year 2015 will be regarded as a historic year in respect of tertiary

education in South Africa. This year will be remembered for students

taking an active stand against the status quo and launching the

#FeesMustFall campaign. Amidst all the chaos, talks and

demonstrations were many final year students on the verge of

graduating. Special congratulations to all those who succeeded during

these trying times.

The IMASA [Johannesburg] Branch once again held a successful

graduation and fund raising dinner on the 4th of December 2015 at the

Sultan Bahu Hall in Mayfair Gauteng. Despite the challenges faced by

the delay in examinations and results, the dedicated committee still

managed to pull off a wonderful and uplifting evening. Grandaunts,

families, friends, committee members and guests all thoroughly

enjoyed the evening and all that it had to offer.

Melodious Quran recitals by Hafith Rashid Ahmed Motlekar (Dentistry

Graduate) and Qari Ziyaad Patel left the audience mesmerized. The

guest speaker, Mr Abdullah Sujee, who is a highly acclaimed educator

focussed on reminding the graduates of their role as a Muslim Health

Professional. All guests truly benefitted and were left enriched by Mr

Sujee’s words of wisdom.

We were humbled by the presence of the son of late Dr YA Patel whom

we honoured for his selfless contributions made to IMA Lenasia Clinics.

Alhumdulillah, his son had accepted the award on behalf of the family

and gave a very emotional and moving thank you to everybody who has

acknowledged his father’s work and passion.

The meals were a gastronomic adventure that satisfied all appetites

while the atmosphere allowed for the evening to be a culmination of

success for the graduates, their families, the IMA and the Muslim

Ummah.

The IMA [Jhb] would like to thank the sponsors [27Four, Investment

Managers. Mr Iqbal Omar & Albaraka Bank] who consistently supports

this event, the organizing committee who ensured that the event was

to the satisfaction of everybody present and we wish all the graduates

well in the future and look forward to another successful year in 2016

AAMEEN.


On the 26th November 2015, we held a Graduates Function for the University of the Free State. The venue was the Francois Retief Building and about 35 guests attended.
