As-salaamu alaykum:
Thanks to your support, CAIR has been able to process more than
3,000 civil rights cases in the past year.
Because of you, we are able to help American Muslims like
Ahmed Mohamed - 'The Clockmaker' - in Irving, Texas, who were mistreated because of their faith or ethnicity.
Ahmed was detained and placed in handcuffs merely for
bringing a homemade clock to school. His detention made national and international headlines - with President Obama tweeting about his unjust treatment.
On October 17th, please join us and Ahmed at our
"Champions for Justice" 21st Anniversary Banquet at the Marriott Crystal Gateway in
Arlington, Va.
At the CAIR banquet, you will also hear from Nobel Peace Prize winner
Tawakkol Karman, comedian and author
Dean Obeidallah and the Bayyinah Institute's
Omar Suleiman.
Individual tickets cost $65 and a table of 10 costs $1,000. Registration begins at: 5:30 pm. We hope to see you there. Banquet tables for a family, business, mosque, or other group, can be reserved by calling 202-742-6454 or by emailing
