We participated in the event just
to give awareness for children rights because many children are seen in jails
or cages and detained. We did try to stop the child detention and no child will
be forced to sleep at the floors of concrete. We participated majorly to stop
the child abuse in the world such as physically, sexually or emotionally
because we have seen many children having a major damage on the body as well as
the loss of the organs such as eyes, hand or arms, legs and in some cases we
have seen children with no kidney.

I have learnt many things in this

individual has own business but he does not deal his customers and employees in
professional and good way, he will definitely face heavy loss in market. On the
other hand, any person who try to spread love and peace around his business and
in his circle, there is eight percent chances to get love from people and his
business will grow.

Knowing your neighbors (an islamic
event) that was hosted and sponsored by the Cedar Valley interfaith council in
the Waterloo at the an in Islamic center at 4PM Sunday, September 9, 2018. The
event was held because of learning the holy
days and festivals in islaam.
Top Learning / Take Away of Events
I have learnt about Eid al-Adha, a
festival of sacrifice in islam that teach us to give away some things in our
life for humanity and for betterment in world. We should understand everyone’s
feelings and values. Almost every person belongs to every religion, so everyone
should have freedom to celebrate their festivals and holy days without any
fear. As every Muslim wants to sacrifice for happiness and serenity but there
are some religions does not allow them to sacrifice in their countries. The
proposed event major purpose was to give awareness that as they want to
celebrate their festivals, Muslim Community also want it too. If the take
lessons deeply, then we can realize that we can sacrifice in every field of our
life. If any individual perform these practices then everyone must have to
encourage them to do more. This technique is very useful to remove spaces
between persons and other religions and the threats will be decreased.
