MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Congratulations to the National Youth Speech Competition Finalists

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu,

Dear Naveed, Maisha, Jabeer, Shahnawaj, Zubayer, Talha, Apipa,

On behalf of MCC and on behalf of all its members, I am joining to congratulate you for your big step forward to compete for the National level Convention. All of you are winners since you have already competed and won at your chapter level competition.

Although I couldn't join the speech competition due to my otherwise commitment, I am confident all of you exceeded our expectations and proved your best during the competition.

As winners are going to address almost thousands of audiences in the MCC Convention 2026, we believe that all of you are very much competent to address such a convention and we all will look forward to your participation and contribution in the days ahead. You all are best among the best and MCC leadership is looking forward to your active role in advancing MCC activities for the cause of Allah.

With the excellent and talented leadership of Dr. Salah Khan and Sister Nadia Akter, we put our trust upon all of you to be the "Torch Bearer of MCC" and highly believe that you will highly contribute in spreading the light of Islam among youngsters and all in North America.

May Allah grant you a successful life here in this world and hereafter.

Jazakumullah bil Khair.

Your brother in Islam
Muhammad Zulkarnain
Chairman
Muslim Circle of Canada
