Peace and unity say IMF Newham at
Eid Dinner.
Some of the loudest applause was given to one of the youngest Councillors in the UK and IMF member, Cllr Firoza Nekiwala, who spoke of her pride at serv-
ing the community and joining hands with other communities in solidarity. Other messages of support to the community were conveyed by a stellar cast
that included, Rt. Hon Stephen Timms MP for East Ham, John Biggs London
Assembly Member, Sir Ghulam Noon MBE, Sonia Klein Managing Director of Islam Channel, Baroness Paula Uddin, Cllr Masood Ahmed Mayor of Waltham
Forest and local community leader Saeed Bhai Chunya.
The speeches were concluded at the end by IMF Newham Secretary and local Councillor, Salim Patel who told the crowd that the recent election victory
both for him and Councillor Firoza Nekiwala were down to community unity and solidarity over the past three years, and that is what the evening was
really about. The organisers were keen to stress that the Dinner was also about wider community unity and made an emotional appeal for Pakistan
Flood Relief donations. They also invited community leaders from Pakistani, Bangladeshi, African and English backgrounds along with people from the
Hindu, Sikh and Christian faiths to demonstrate that the IMF works with all sections of the community.

"Inspiring the future generation of Newham"
The Islamic Circles Supplementary School (ICSS) is an entirely volunteer run supplementary
school that operates in the London Borough of Newham, Tower Hamlets and Birmingham.
Our aim is not to replace but to supplement the work already being done by the local schools
by providing additional support in core curriculum subjects.
What sets us apart however, is that we also aim to be an integral part of the local
community as well as to provide active role
models for those around us.
We not only support education, but also contribute to community cohesion by being involved
in local events based on our strong links with the Froud Centre and the Parish of St Michael's.
Our volunteers are as diverse as the community around us- teachers, solicitors, and local
businessmen being just some examples of the various backgrounds we hail from.
ICSS is an integral part of the local community, and
our events and work are regularly covered by the
local press.

Muslim Aid Calls For A Renewed Pledge to
Achieve the Millennium Development Goals
Muslim Aid has welcomed this week’s special
meeting of the UN General Assembly on the review
of the Millennium Development Goals and reiterated the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon’s
call for world leaders to “provide the necessary investment, aid and political will to end ex-
treme poverty.” World leaders have been urged to redouble their national efforts to fulfil their
promise of achieving the MDGs by 2015 and involve the NGO community to accelerate the
pace of development.
Commenting on the UN Summit, Chairman of Muslim Aid, Sir Iqbal Sacranie said: “With only
five years left to the realisation of MDGs we not only need to review the progress so far but
also strengthen our commitment towards achieving the eight anti-poverty goals by 2015.
Muslim Aid reaffirms its pledge and resolve to end global poverty through its programmes
that address the root causes of poverty and meet the challenge of combating disease, fight-
ing hunger, protecting the environment and making education accessible for all. In doing so,
Muslim Aid endeavours to provide a lifeline to millions of people worldwide, including those
living in the most vulnerable and fragile countries.”
Muslim Aid is committed to achieving the MDGs through a number of its key programmes
ranging from education for children and youth, microfinance schemes and income generation,
women empowerment through skills training and education and providing essential health
care in many of the poorest countries. Muslim Aid believes that these programmes, however,
need to be further encouraged through a concerted institutional funding and effort in order to
meet the MDGs in five years.
Despite the global economic downturn, the British public has been most generous in respond-
ing to the charity appeals of Muslim Aid for the Pakistan floods and for the humanitarian and
development programmes implemented by Muslim Aid Field Offices directly as well as
through its international partners in many countries.

How to deal with bitter criticism
Those who are ignorant have uttered curses at Allah, the Exalted, the Creator of ill that exists, so what treatment should we, who are full of faults, expect from people. You will always have to face criticism, which in its onslaught is like an interminable war: it shows no sign of ending. As long as you shine, give, produce, and have an effect upon others, then disapproval and condemnation will be your lot in life. Until you escape from people by finding a tunnel in the ground or a ladder leading to the sky, they will not desist from censuring you, from finding fault in your character. For that reason, as long as you are from the denizens of earth, expect to be hurt, to be insulted, and to be criticized. And here is something you should contemplate: a person who is sitting on the ground does not fall, and people do not kick a dead dog. Therefore their anger toward you can be attributed to you sur-passing them in righteousness, knowledge, manners, or wealth. In their eyes you are a transgressor whose wrongs cannot be atoned for unless you abandon your talents and strip yourself of all praise-worthy qualities, so that you become stupid, worthless, and to them, innocuous. This result is ex-actly what they want for you. So remain firm and patient when facing their insults and criticism. If you are wounded by their words and let them have an influence over you, you will have realized their hopes for them. In-stead, forgive them by showing them the most beautiful of manners. Turn away from them and do not feel distressed by their schemes. Their disapproval of you only increases you in worth and merit. Verily, you will not be able to silence them, but you will be able to bury their criticisms by turning away from them and dismissing what they have to say. `Perish in your rage '. (Qur 'an 3: 119) In fact, you will be able to increase them in their rage by increasing your merits and developing your talents. If you desire to be accepted by all and loved by all, you desire the unattainable.

We continually strive to develop skills and increase the confidence of all our pupils so that they may boldly face the challenges, and enjoy the opportuni-ties, of life in the twenty first century.

We also provide Islamic Education in the form of Arabic, seerah history, basic fiqh and tahfeezul-ul-Quraan. This curriculum is intended to broaden all the children’s academic and Islamic knowledge. Weekday Madrasah (Qur’an) classes are also available in the evening from 5pm to 7pm and Hifzul Qur’an classes from 5:00pm to 7:30pm (and 6:00am to 7:30am weekday mornings). We cater to the needs of the individual child at all different stages of development in a warm, welcoming and secure Islamic environment. Our staff and all our teachers are practicing Muslims. They are enthusiastic, hardworking and dedicated to the children en-trusted to them. The children will be challenged and not pressurised, into achieving their individual best.

Nasheeds and Poetry Page
Put all our pride
away,
always find a gen-
tle word to say
you know we
shouldn't fool our-
selves,
Allah has given so
much to you and
me.
Put all our pride
away,
Always thank Allah when we pray,
You know we shouldn't be full of our-
selves when we,
should be full of humility.
We're all livin' here together on this
planet floatin' round the sun
We're all equal to one another, no
one's better than anyone
The only ting we have to weigh us all
apart is the faith only Allah can see,
deep inside our hearts.
Put all our pride away,
always find a gentle word to say
you know we shouldn't fool ourselves,
Allah has given so much to you and
me.
Put all our pride away,
Always thank Allah when we pray,
You know we shouldn't be full of our-
selves when we,
should be full of humility.
Trying hard to simply be humble and
never act too proud
It's easy to trip and stumble with your
nose up above the clouds
Page 11
Its always best to be modest and
keep our feet on the ground
Cause pride will eat us up inside if
we're arrogant and loud.
Put all our pride away,
always find a gentle word to say
you know we shouldn't fool our-
selves,A
llah has given so much to you and
me.
Put all our pride away,
Always thank Allah when we pray,
You know we shouldn't be full of our-
selves when we,
should be full of humility.
O you who believe! Eat not up your property amongst yourselves in vanities: but let there be amongst you traffic and trade by
mutual good-will: nor kill (or destroy) yourselves: for verily Allah has been to you Most Merciful. [Al Qur’an 4:29]

FC Catalans made their competitive debut against Ilford colts in the East London Essex league this week. They couldn't have asked for a better start. Dominant from minute one they seemed certain to score early. Captain Adam Polli found himself on the wrong end of the pitch one on one with the goalkeeper only to be denied by the post. The goalkeepers’ clear-ance failed to get any distance striking Talha Patel on the back for the boys in yellow to take the lead. The game settled with Ilford colts start-ing to look more and more threatening. A Catalan attack was broken down and colts worked their way down the left flank. A harsh challenge
by Abid Patel gave a free kick in a dangerous area which was put away delightfully. Catalans kept their calm and battled away. a swift move in midfield was brilliantly finished by Vinesh. He made no mistake in placing the ball in the top right corner. With the lead back, and confidence now in every player, the yellow and red army started playing proper football. Working down the left wing Yusuf and Mo Shareef worked the ball into the box. Mo was taken out and referee had no choice but to point to the spot. Up stepped Vinesh to score his second of the game and Catalans 3rd. With half time approaching the boys looked very comfortable only to concede with practically the last kick of the half. The ball floated in the air and seemed to be floating into the net, but Yasin Ali got his fin-gers to the ball but could only manage to tip it onto the bar and the rebound fell to an Ilford player to make it 3-2. The second half was more of the same from Catalans. They continued to press and dominated the second half. Vinesh completed his hat trick after brilliant play by Zinho and Minhaz wrapped the game up with a simple tap in. In the end the better team won. Ruudy and his boys are 3points from 3. The message has been sent to the rest of the league.

Asen Agov is beaten by one of the
best free-kicks seen at the Terence
Macmillan stadium
The last thing APSA needed was
thirty minutes of extra time in this
first round FA VASE match, but that
is what they got after the scores
ended 1-1 at 90 minutes.
Having only played 48 hours earlier,
APSA were suffering more injures
with; Lee, Callaway, Chuck and Ere-
kosima all injured and Simmons,
Bapu and Guest also missing for one
reason or another.
One positive note for Manager John
Higley was the return from suspen-
sion of Hind and Jamie Langton and
Tim Cole was back in the centre of
defence.
Apsa made a positive start to the
match, against a young Sandhurst
side and dominated the first forty
five minuses, restricting the visitors
to half chances on the break.
But the home fans had to wait until
the 19th minute to see the first goal
and what a goal it was. Scott won a
free kick just outside the box, and
up stepped Gavin Toussani, who
produced a superb shot that curled
round the wall and into the back of
the next. It was one of the best free
kicks ever to be seen at the Terence
Macmillan Stadium. Captain John
Langton leads the celebrations after
Gavin Toussani's (centre) fantastic
free kick.
Two minutes later APSA nearly
extended the lead, when a long
ball from Houghton, had Scott
flying through the air for an at-
tempted diving header which just
eluded him and Agov in the visi-
tor’s goal collected the ball easily.
On the half hour Apsa
got another free kick just outside
the area but this time more cen-
tral to the previous kick, and with
everyone waiting to see what
Toussani would produce now, he
fooled every one by letting Scott
take the kick. But his shot did not
have the same venom and Agov
caught the ball easily.
The visitors who had made the
long journey from Berkshire,
started the second half more
positively, bringing their wide
men; Louis Hibbert on the right
and Dan Simmonds- who had an
exceptional second half, on the
right. The two wingers started to
worry the APSA defence and in
the 52nd minute, Jamie Langton,
playing at right back, brought
down Simmonds inside the box.
Steve Brown made a great save
from James Mepham’s spot kick
to keep APSA’s slender lead. But
10 mins later the forward made
amends, when after another Sim-
monds run down the left, he got
his foot to the low cross to level
the scores.
APSA were left to create chances
on the break, a reversal of for-
tunes from the first half, but the
APSA forwards did not get any
breaks from the match officials as
time and again Scott, Houghton
and Toussani were called back by
the lines man flag.
The visitors nearly snatched the
game in between the APSA
chances with good chances of
their own, with shots and headers
that went over the bar, wide of
the post or saved by Brown.
As extra time began, the
home supporters were very un-
sure of how their team would
cope as the momentum had
clearly swung to the visitors. But
the APSA of 2010-11 that John
Higley and his coaching staff are
building are made of sterner stuff,
who refuse to accept defeat.
They began extra time more posi-
tively and in the 100th minute
were rewarded once more when
that man Toussani, swung in a
superb left footed free kick
which was met by the head of
Tim Cole, who’s’ powerful header
give Agov no chance.
Sandhurst made their last subis-
tutions and put a four man at-
tack, APSA countered by bring on
new signing Joye Bryant to
strengthen the mid-field and
took off winger Houghton.
APSA fought hard for the rest of
extra time to make sure they
progressed in to the next round.
TEAM:
Brown, Jamie Langton, Cole,
Hind, John Langton (cap); Smith-
Shaw, McCullagh; Smith, Tous-
sani; Houghton ((sub Bryant)
Scott.
Chairman Zulfi Ali
"What a great result. The teams
desire to win is astounding,
John's got these players into a
mode of not losing and long may
it continue. The spirit in the camp
is very good and even though we
were vastly under strength with
injuries and suspensions, we
pulled of a fantastic result for the
club.
It was a really wonderful day as
73 parents and children from our
youth teams were also present at
the leisure centre. Enjoying train-
ing and a small penalty competi-
tion at the stadium. Was an ex-
cellent day out for them and a
great motivator to start off their
league season in the East London
and Essex League.
