Assalāmu ʿAlaikum wa RaḄmatullāhi wa Barakātuh

Dear brothers and sisters,

Allāh ļ·» says in the Noble Qur’ān:

These guidelines cover eligibility to vote, the nomination process, and conduct on election day. We kindly ask all members – whether standing as candidates, voting, or simply attending – to read them carefully so that the process runs smoothly and reflects the values of our community.

May Allāh ļ·» guide our affairs, bless this election, and grant success to those who will best serve His house and His servants. ĀmÄ«n.
