Success ! Condoleezza Rice Masjid visit cancelled!
Success!
MPACUK are happy to announce that following pressure from local Ulema, the local Blackburn community (SubhanAllah), Blackburn with Darwen
Stop the War and MPACUK, the invitation to Condoleezza Rice's visit to Masjid Al Hidayah has been withdrawn.
It has come to MPACUK's attention that the spin being applied to the withdrawal of the invitation from the Foreign office and the Masjid Committee is that "an invasion of the Mosque was planned at Fajr time". We can ensure the FO and the Masjid Committee that we will leave invasions to the specialists, Messers Straw and Rice.
A number of us had planned to spend some time after Fajr at the Masjid, read a little Quran, a few Nafl etc.
We hope that Masjid Al Hidayah's late foray into the world of Dawah will continue as they stated in their justification for the invitation. They should perhaps start in tackling the segregated nature of Blackburn and try to bring communities together.

MPACUK rightly claiming a major victory for Muslim autonomus organisation.
