Junior Camp 2013 Concludes Successfully

On Sunday, June 16th, the 2013 Junior Summer Camp drew to a successful conclusion. Young campers aged ten through fourteen enjoyed outdoor activities and spiritual guidance from Imam Sayed Moustafa Al-Qazwini. The main highlights of the camp were its many speakers, including Imam Al-Qazwini and Brother Robert Turfe, ziplining, nature hikes, and delicious halal meals. The Islamic Educational Center congratulates all of the campers and gives special thanks to the volunteers, organizers, and speakers. We are already looking forward to next year's camp!

Mid-Sha'ban Celebration at the IECOC

The Islamic Educational Center of Orange County will be holding its annual Mid-Sha.ban celebration, celebrating the birth of Imam Mahdi (as), on Saturday, June 22nd. The program will begin at 6:30 PM and feature a lecture by Imam Sayed Moustafa Al-Qazwini along with other presentations, concluding with prayers and dinner.

Imam Muhammad ibn Al-Hasan Al-Mahdi (as), also known as Imam Mahdi (as), is the twelfth and final infallible Imam according to the school of the Ahlul Bayt. Born in Samarra, Iraq in the year 255 AH (869 CE), he succeeded his father, Imam Hasan Al-Askari (as), the eleventh Imam, at the age of five. Imam Mahdi (as), went into major occultation (disappearance) in the year 329 AH (941 CE), where he remains to this day. It has been reported that the Prophet (pbuh&hf) once said, "I and `Ali are the fathers of this nation; whoever knows us very well also knows Allah, and whoever denies us also denies Allah, the Unique, the Mighty. And from `Ali's descendants are my grandsons Al-­Hasan and Al-­Husayn, who are the masters of the youths of Paradise, and from Al-­Husayn's descendants shall be nine: whoever obeys them obeys me, and whoever disobeys them also disobeys me; the ninth among them is their Qa'im and Mahdi." It is believed that one day Imam Mahdi (as) will return from occultation and usher in an era of peace, prosperity, and justice on Earth.
