Often the belief in God is ridiculed in this society such that those who believe in God are made to feel intellectually inferior to those who believe in the theory of evolution. This session will explore the rational arguments for and against the existence of God in order to establish a sound background in this matter.

Kami mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha Maaf Zahir dan Batin kepada semua warga Melayu UK. Semoga hari yang mulia ini akan mengeratkan lagi persahabatan di antara kita. Walau pun Melayu UK tidak mengadakan majlis sambutan secara besar-besaran tetapi kami berharap warga Melayu UK akan dapat merayakan hari yang mulia ini bersama kenalan yang berdekatan.

Perhimpunan Keluarga 2009 aka camping at Ashworth Valley Scout Camp went very well over the weekend. The camping attracted participants from various races, Muslims and non-Muslims. Once again the Malay community in the UK has shown that they do not just mixed around with Malays only. Mixing around with Malays only will prevent personal development and is likened to the Malay proverb "Seperti katak di bawah tempurung" (like a frog under the coconut shell).

Participants enjoyed the weekend with various indoor and outdoor activities and participants even lit their own campfire. Sarah Hamidi from PISANG (Professional Islamic Support and Nurture Group) launched the "Link Scheme: From Al-Azhar to the World", a scheme to help Muslims in the UK learn more about their religion. Sarah can be contacted via email sarah @ pisang.org.uk.

PISANG also had a session on the "Introduction to PISANG", explaining the services offered by the organisation. At the request of participants, jinn-screening sessions were also held after the talk.

Food have been very delicious with participants going for a second round at every meal. Participants also could not resist the temptations of various delicious food on sale at the Melayu UK summer fete, organised on the Sunday.

The Perhimpunan Keluarga was also an event that mark the change of leadership of Melayu UK. The new line up of committee members are as follows:

President: Suhaib Hamidi
Vice President: Addawiah Salim
Secretary: Zurina Ali
Treasurer: Nidzamuddin Ahmad

Adviser: Hamidi Abdul Rahman

Our Perhimpunan Keluarga (aka camping) this year will be held at Ashworth Valley Campsite. The annual Perhimpunan Keluarga is a key factor in bonding the friendship amongst our members. As in the past, we are proud to inform that this year's Perhimpunan Keluarga will be also attended by many non-Malays. This proves that the resident Malay community is not an isolated community but is increasingly playing a bigger role in the British community.

Update: Mobile clinics will be held in conjuction with Islamic Medical Treatment courses. Please visit www.pisang.org.uk for the latest information.

Melayu UK and PISANG (Professional Islamic Support and Nurture Group) plans to hold another mobile clinic for the screening and treatment of jinn-related problems. Jinn can cause some illnesses and modern medicine will not be able to cure those type of illnesses. Screening will be done using the Ruqyah Shar'iyyah methodology and we are planning to fly in Al-Hafiz Ustaz Trimizi Zainal to conduct the clinic.


PISANG is a non-profit organisation registered in the UK and has carried out many mobile clinics in Malaysia, Australia, Brunei, Singapore, Jordan, Egypt and UK. PISANG is highly dependent on donation to fund its activities and we hope to collect donations to cover the cost of organising the mobile clinic. Screening and treatment services will be provided free-of-charge. However we encourage donations to cover our cost. Please send us an email if you wish to pledge donation for the planned mobile clinic.

PISANG is also planning to organise a course on Introduction to Islamic Medical Treatment. Please contact us if you are interested in taking the course.
