“I welcome leaders from the Islamic Association of Western Canada to Ottawa. They helped build a new mosque in Surrey, B.C. I ask the House to join me in thanking them for their service to our community.”
“Mr. Speaker, it is my honour to welcome to Ottawa today the president of the Islamic Association of Western Canada, Mr. Muhammad Arjamand Tahir, and the vice-president, Mr. Syed Asif Iqbal. In 2018, they began their journey to establish a beautiful mosque in the heart of Surrey, B.C. Today, that vision has become a reality with the establishment of Jamia Masjid Aulia Allah. I look forward to joining them later today to celebrate the birth of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, an event organized by Imam Syed Badiuddin Soharwardy, chairman of the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada. Please join me in commending them for their dedication to faith, community service and unity.”
