The weekend will consist of five, 2 hour sessions including Q&A, all relating to different kinds of relationships, including the relationship we have with our parents, the opposite gender, non-Muslims, and most importantly with Allah swt. We will also be holding a special session on “Ways to Love the Prophet.”
The official program will begin on Saturday at noon, giving all of our out-of-town guests ample time to drive in to Austin. Texas MSA will be reserving hotel rooms at a discount rate and providing free accommodations for students. More information will be available soon!

Welcome Dinner has been a Longhorn Muslim tradition for as long as anyone can recall. It has been, and will always be, the inception of all great things to come.
