NEW YORK, NY (November 13, 2015) – The Islamic Circle of North America is horrified by the series of events taking place in France. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims, the first responders, and all of the people of France.
"The loss of innocent lives, especially on a mass scale is devastating to all people of conscience. ICNA stands united with the people of France and all persons of good conscience in condemning this senseless outrage that threatens the safety of all of us.
"ICNA also appeals to the French authorities to take swift action in apprehending the perpetrators of this attack and bring them to justice.

Allah says, "Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors." [Quran 5:32]

Paris Attacks are Despicable, Our Prayers are with the Victims
November 14, 2015
The attacks in Paris were horrific and despicable, and taking innocent life violates the principles of every faith. The orchestration of multiple locations and maximization of casualties shows a sinister disregard for life that is grossly at odds with any and all of us as human beings and as American citizens.
We must redouble our efforts for partnership and cooperation with law enforcement, as they have the challenging dual responsibility to neutralize any terrorist threat and also to protect communities from any backlash.
Our country must be united in this time of crisis; unity will enhance our efforts to fend off any violent extremism and preserve the values of our society.
To mitigate any attempt by ISIS in their recruiting efforts in the U.S., we are promoting programs to build resilience against its terrorist ideology.
Our prayers and condolences go out to the families and loved ones of the victims.
We share these same condolences with the French Embassy, and later this week, plan to visit the Embassy with our interfaith partners as a way to express our collective concern and solidarity.
We also acknowledge the carnage that took place in Beirut. Our hearts go out to those impacted by that attack and to all victims of terrorism around the world.
In peace,
Salam Al-Marayati
President

FREE Community Event: Trapped by the FBI!
FREE Community Event: Trapped by the FBI!
Posted November 2, 2015Important FREE Presentation about the FBI and the Entrapment of American Muslims
WHEN: Sunday, Nov 15, 3:00 – 5:00 pm
WHERE: Friends Center, 1501 Cherry Street, Philadelphia, PA 19102
As has been reported in the America media, in their attempt to fight an ill-conceived "war on terror," agencies of the US Government, especially the FBI, are often the very authors of the attempted terror attacks they are charged with preventing. This tactic often involves the recruitment and manipulation by the FBI of impressionable young men in the American Muslim community, a ploy known as "entrapment" that makes use of informants.
Award-winning investigative journalist Trevor Aaronson, author of The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism, will discuss his reporting on the FBI's use of informants and stings in U.S. Muslim communities. He will also show his documentary for Al Jazeera Media Network, "Informants," which screened at the London Investigative Film Festival. Aaronson is a 2015 TED Fellow, and he has been featured on CBS This Morning, NPR's All Things Considered, MSNBC, This American Life, and WNYC's On the Media, among others. For further information, call the CAIR office, 267-515-6710.
Do not miss this important program. Please distribute this announcement widely.
