Assalamwalaikum,
I pray you are reading this in the best of health and Iman InshAllah.
I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Mehreen Rahim, I am the newsletter coordinator for Al-Risalah, the MSA newsletter, this year. I've only been working in this position for a month and already I can see the immense benefit and possibilities I have been given Alhumdullilah. I have met so many wonderful people and worked with some of the best.
I was hesitant when first offered the position because I knew it was a task that would be anything but easy. But Alhumdullilah, everyone on Shura and the team has been extremely helpful. Honestly, I could not have asked for a better Al-Risalah team. When it came time to putting this all together, everyone contributed as much as they could and offered a helping hand wherever needed.
To the people who dedicated time to contribute to this issue despite their crazy college schedules, may Allah (SWT) reward you for your efforts and intentions in making this possible. Specifically, I want to thank the designers, writers, editors, videographers, and photographers of the team, as well as, all the individuals who participated in submitted articles and being a part of the videos. Your work is highly appreciated. I am excited to work with this team for the upcoming issues throughout the year InshAllah, they are definitely some of the greatest people I have met during my time at Loyola. If you aren't part of the team, join!
JazakAllah Khair for your time in reading this issue. I hope it lives up to last year's standards and InshAllah future issues will be similar, if not better.
Take care,
Mehreen Rahim
