President Bush will host a service marking this day at the National Cathedral, in Washington, DC, at 12:00pm. ISCA Chairman Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani will represent the Council at this important event.
The Council calls on all its members, on all Muslims in this nation and throughout the world, to attend religious services at their local houses of worship and to remember the victims of this tragic crime in their prayers.
