GUMSA Activities

BBQ’s at Griffith

InshaAllah we will Endeavour to have a Barbeque for Muslim students once per semester of each year. Both brothers and sisters will be catered for. We try to have them at the beginning of the semester so people can mingle and get to know their Muslim peers.

Inter MSA Event

Inshallah there will be an inter-MSA event held once a semester, between UQ, QUT and Griffith. Activities will range from sports to a fun day out. Your suggestions are most welcomed. This event will occur later in the semester.

Ramadan

The event that boasts the highest Muslim student participation is the Ramadan’s iftar and dinner. This is funded by various members and organisations through out Brisbane, including Griffith University itself. Sisters please note that there are arrangements for separate catering as well.
The Iftar and Dinner are served at the Common Room in the science block. We will advise students of the location details closer to Ramadan. Maghrib Salaah takes place in Nathan campus Musallah between Iftar and Dinner. Currently this event is only at Nathan Campus.
Sahur and Iftar timings will be posted on the site closer to Ramadan InshaAllah.
Taraweeh is also performed at the Musallah at Nathan Campus. Nevertheless, the onus is on the interested brothers to arrange someone to lead the Taraweeh Salaah. GUMSA will try finding a Hufaaz to lead Taraweeh on campus, however, in previous years we have been unsuccessful. Therefore the MSA cannot promise the students anything in this regard as the matter is out of our hands in the event we fail to find a hafiz.
For those who have Lectures during Taraweeh then you can contact video recording services to lecture for you and place it in the library. Please make sure you notify them of this at the beginning of the semester.
