On Sunday 3rd May 2015 the ICCI Women's Department presented to an audience of 119 female participants the Annual Women's Conference 2015 titled 'Aisha; The Pious, The Pure, may Allah be pleased with her'.

Speakers on the day included: Dr Jamal Badawi from Canada, Dr Abdulhai Yusuf from Sudan, Sr Jillian McNicoll from Ireland and Sr Asme Abdelradi.

It was an inspiring day of talks that increased the awareness with sisters of who Aisha(raa) really was and what was her many roles in life. The thought provoking reminder delivered by Sr Asme Abdelradi thought us to appreciate the gift we have as Muslims and our duty toward others sharing this same gift. Throughout the program Sr Rachida (Fitness Instructor) energised the attendees with bursts of movements that increased adrenalin and kept attendees sharp and attentive during lectures.

Finally as per tradition the staff of ICCI presented five women fromt he community with bouquets of flowers for individual achievements during the year.  This year the flowers were presented to : Sr Christine - latest woman to take shahada, Sr Naimah - for clarifying truth from lies that helped a sister, Dr Asma - to welcome her back to the community and in recognition of her great work as a doctor & sister,  Sr Asisa - for her great work with the Nigerian sisters and the ICCI,  Sr Romaissa - for her continued hard work with Discover Islam and the New Muslim sisters group.

Thanks to all sisters who helped toward the success of the program, including all attendees.
