Islamic Finance Program

AMAL would like to thank the Fordham Law School Corporate Law Center, along with all of its co-sponsors for putting on an interesting, informative and very relevant event about the fundamentals of Islamic Finance. The event was well attended (approximately 120 audience members were present) and the speakers, by all accounts, were knowledgeable and articulate about the topic. In addition, AMAL was well represented in the audience, and by Omar Mohammedi who spoke about Islamic Finance from a legal context.

The event was held on Monday, February 7, 2011, at Fordham Law School. The program featured two experts in the field of Islamic Finance - Omar T. Mohammedi, from the Law Firm of Omar T. Mohammedi, LLC and Monem Salam from Saturna Capital.

This program was co-sponsored by the Fordham Corporate Law Center, the Fordham International & Non-J.D. Programs and The Association of Muslim American Lawyers (AMAL)

LETTER OF APPRECIATION TO THE MAYOR

We at AMAL extend a heartfelt appreciation to Mayor Michael Bloomberg for his recent speech in defense of freedom of religion. The speech came at a critical time when we are experiencing some of the most virulent Islamophobia since the attacks of 9/11.
We encourage everyone to write to the Mayor to thank him for his firm stance on this issue.
