Light A Candle For the Savior of Humanity 2010
Light A Candle For the Savior of Humanity
 

The Awaited One Foundation is proud to announce our latest campaign as we invite you to the second annual “Light A Candle For the Savior of Humanity.” This one of its kind effort is just one more way we can create stronger awareness about our living Imam Muhammad Al-Mehdi [aj].

This exciting campaign is simple and effective! Community members are asked to light a candle and place it on the porch of their homes at 10 pm local time [EST], on the eve of 15th Sha'ban which is the birth date of the Holy Imam [aj], and falls this year on MONDAY JULY 26.

 
AOF Volunteers will be available around town distributing special candles throughout the week leading up to the event. If you would like some candles feel free to contact us at info@awaitedone.org

The purpose of this initiative is to create awareness and encourage a friendly discussion amongst family members and between Muslims and their neighbors, Muslim or non-Muslim, about the living Imam [aj]. In addition, activities such as this create a comforting and spiritual atmosphere in neighborhoods around town.

We hope to spread this initiative to other places across the country in the near future. If you are interested in helping organize such an initiative feel free to contact us at info@awaitedone.org

The AOF stresses safety as we embark on this celebration. PLEASE exercise caution when using candles and we ask that you please keep in mind the safety of you and your loved ones as we celebrate the savior of humanity. Children should never be left unattended with the candles which should always be supervised by an adult.
