Spot the difference. Erdogan in English: Hagia Sophia's doors will be, as is the case with all our mosques, wide open to all, whether they be foreign or local, Muslim or non-Muslim. Erdogan in Arabic: Revival of Hagia Sophia is a sign towards return of freedom to AlAqsa mosque.

A kind reminder to vote for new officers for ISA including the President and At-Large Reps till Dec. 5. I'd like to highlight two individuals whose leadership will make a difference in our community as I, a junior & first-gen scholar from the MENA, have witnessed it first-hand.
