Sayyidah Fatima (AS) Shahadat Event

The Waterloo TMA (Thaqalayn Muslim Association -- a student organization based in the University of Waterloo) held a community event on Sunday March 24, 2013 to commemorate the Shahadat of Sayyidah Fatima Zahra (A.S.). (According to some narrations, the Lady of Light was martyred on Jumadi al-Awwal 13, which falls on Monday, March 25, 2013 in 1434 AH.)

The program took place from 5:30 - 8:30 PM in the Optometry building (room OPT 1129) of the University of Waterloo campus. It included dinner, recitation of poetry (including a tribute to the poet and recent martyr Sibte-Ja'far), and a lecture by Syed Hassan Mujtaba of Toronto.

The cost of a ticket was $5 per person, and all proceeds and additional donations are for the Shaheed Foundation to support the families of victims of the Pakistan Shi'a genocide.
