DFW Community Events/Duas
Please make a special Du'a for a young man in Michigan by the name of Bilal Ali. He is about 22 years old, and last week, he had to undergo major brain surgery to remove a recently discovered tumor. His mother just messaged me asking that I have everyone pray for him. He is still in the hospital and in need of all the prayers he can receive. His mother requested that I ask everyone to pray for his complete recovery.

Bilal had his Nikkah performed with a wonderful girl named Sidra a few months ago. They are both wonderful kids with amazing families.
Community member, Brother Mojibur Rahman, will have cancer surgery at on 6/16/16 in Bangkok. The family has requested Dua.
Community member Br. Mohammed Nazrul Karim had a stroke and is in the ICU. Please keep him in your Duas.
