Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed, to Him we will return.
Our prayers are with the victims of the Islamophobic attack on the Islamic Center of San Diego, their families and loved ones, and the entire Muslim community.
May God grant the highest place in Jannah to the deceased.

Today, on International Day of Families ( ), MPV is joining fellow members of the Global Campaign for Equality in Family Law (GCEFL) for Week of Action for equality in family law.
Family is considered the foundational unit of society. Yet around the world, discriminatory family laws continue to deny women and girls their fundamental rights, from the right to choose their own partners, to equal rights in divorce, custody, inheritance and property.
Without equality in the family, we cannot have equality in society.
The GCEFL brings together a coalition of 8 leading women's rights, human rights and faith-based organisations, all united in their commitment to the pursuit of legal equality in the family as a prerequisite for a world where woman and girl can reach their full potential.
This movement is gaining momentum. Family law reform is increasingly recognised at the UN and in regional and international decision-making spaces as foundational to achieving gender equality. SDG Indicator 5.1.1 has identified family law as one of four legal frameworks that must be reformed to accelerate progress for women and girls.
This week we will explore the global picture, and the evidence which shows the power of reform.
