Singalong Saturday
Today we feature 15 year old Danial Sayani playing his version of Happy by Pharrell Williams. “Music is an explosive expression of humanity “ Billy Joel. As a composer and performer, Danial believes music has the power to change a mood; shift a mindset and bring hope to any situation. Music touches people, working from the inside out - when you feel it in your soul, your body lightens, your breath becomes rhythmic and you smile, so much so that it radiates. It is magical.
If you would like to be featured on singalong Saturday please email ice@iiuk.org.

ITREB Thought of the Day: #SaturdaySchool
The al-Masjid al-Haram was built as a sanctuary around the Kaaba in the seventh century and is considered to be the oldest mosque in the world. It has continuously expanded over time, accommodating a growing number of Muslims from across the world who complete the major and lesser pilgrimages, Hajj and Umrah. The first Muslim structure on the site was a wall around the Kaaba, built by the second caliph, Umar, in 638 CE. Succeeding caliphs added partial ceilings, columns, and decorative embellishments. A major renovation was undertaken in 1571, when the Ottoman Sultan Selim II directed the court architect Sinan to make improvements to the building, which are now the oldest remaining parts of the modern structure. Known as the Great Mosque of Mecca, it is today regarded as one of the largest buildings in the world. It can accommodate over 1 million worshippers, and there are plans to expand it further in the coming years.
