Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Association for Women

AMSAW is very excited to announce our biggest event of the semester! RU Fasting? is an interfaith event in which we invite people from different religions to talk about how and why they observe fasting. We will be having speakers from Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. There will be a question and answer session with the audience afterwards as well as free food! We are gladly cosponsoring with for this event. Inshallah we hope to see you all there! You can RSVP in the linktree in the bio.

Alhamdulillah by the grace and blessings of Allah we had a very successful event in which we talked about the purpose of fasting amongst different religions. We would like to thank our speakers who came to the event to talk about why and how they fast. We would also like to thank everyone who either helped or came to this event. Inshallah we hope to host more interfaith dialogues and events on Rutgers campus in the future.

Assalamoalaikum!
We wish you all Ramadan Mubarak and we hope that your fasting is going well. AMSAW wanted to let everyone know that we decided to do three more Coffee, Cake, and True Islam (CCTI) workshops for the semester during Ramadan due to the high turnout we have been having. All CCTIs are still being held at the Livingston Student Center and inshallah we hope to see you guys there! Our very last workshop will be held on April 21st. If you can't make it and would still like to ask us questions in April during Ramadan please email us at [email protected]

Assalamoalaikum everyone! We are cosponsoring with the Rutgers Ahlul Bayt Student Association on an event about islamophobia in the colonial and post-colonial world. It takes place this Monday, March 28th at 8pm at the Busch Student Center Multi-Purpose Room.

The goal is to raise awareness of Islamophobia through the historic perception of the Muslim community as they exist during colonial practices and postcolonialism across the world. Colonialism is an invasive practice used by foreign powers to conquer and dismantle the culture and religion of those they are displacing. The dehumanizing practices of colonialism have affected cultures and communities across the world and the aftermath of these atrocities are still present in the modern-day.

Assalamoalaikum everyone! We will be having a social mixer with the Hindu Student Association TONIGHT at CASC Room 411BC at 9:15pm. There will be pizza, soda, and fun activities. Come join us for a chill hangout in which we make new friends and meet new people!

Assalamoalaikum guys! AMSAW wanted to let everyone know that we have two CCTIs left for the semester. Due Ramadan starting in April we are cutting Coffee, Cake and True Islam short this semester. Please take note that we will not be holding an info table during the break and we have a time change on the 24th. All CCTIs are still being held at the Livingston Student Center and we hope to see you guys there! If you would like to talk to us or ask us questions past March during Ramadan please email us at [email protected]

Assalamoalaikum we have decided to change CCTI to a earlier time and a different day from now on. We are sorry for the multiple time changes but this will be our final meeting time and day for the rest of the semester. We will be hosting this workshop on Thursdays from 5-7pm at the same location (Livingston Student Center). Please RSVP at [email protected] if you would like to come!

Just to recap this workshop aims to dispel misconceptions about Islam by answering any questions you may have while enjoying a free snack! We welcome everyone to ask us anything such as jihad, shariah law, women's rights or anything else you want to learn about Islam. We hope to see you guys there at our final and new time and day!

AMSAW welcomes everyone to our first event of the semester! We will be talking about the concept of prophethood and khilafat (or caliphate in English) in Islam. We encourage everyone to bring your peers to this event. There will be a question and answer session with the audience afterwards as well as free food. We are also glad to announce that we will be cosponsoring with for this event and you can RSVP by emailing [email protected]

Love for all, Hatred for none

Islam has always been a champion of interfaith harmony, peace and cooperation. Unfortunately the media misconstrues Islam into something its not: a violent religion that promotes terrorism. To fight against this, AMSAW has strived to try to host interfaith events on campus in order to come up with solutions and discuss issues that plague society with a faith-based perspective. The last interfaith event we hosted was called Religion and Racism, which was hosted right before the pandemic hit. We hope to host more interfaith events in the future in order to enrich and educate the Rutgers community on different religions as well as promote interfaith harmony on campus.

AMSAW would like to wish you all Happy World Hijab Day! In honor of this day we will be discussing as well as putting on hijabs on others in our workshop this Wednesday(tomorrow). This post answers common questions about the hijab while also explaining what its purpose is.

AMSAW is excited to announce that we are holding a weekly workshop called Coffee, Cake, and True Islam. This workshop aims to dispel misconceptions about Islam by answering any questions you may have while enjoying a free snack! We welcome everyone to ask us anything such as jihad, shariah law, women's rights or anything else you want to learn about Islam. Our workshop will be held every Wednesday at the Livingston Student Center from 7:30-9:30pm.

For those who don't know, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community's motto is Love for All, Hatred for None. Unfortunately, many people don't know how this motto came to be or what the importance behind this motto is. This post aims to shed some information on where this motto comes from and how it impacts us today.

AMSAW has been active on and off since 2010 under many different names. The club was eventually rebranded to be what is it is today as Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Association for Women (AMSAW). Before this version of AMSAW was even formed into a club, it started out with a group of women coming together once a week at Panera Bread on College Ave to meet with students who had questions about Islam in the year 2017. You can read more about our beginnings in the Daily Targum Feature.
