Letter from the President
Assalamu’Alaikum, may peace and blessings be upon you.
I am delighted to welcome you to the Oxford Islamic Society! We are dedicated to serving the needs of Muslim students at Oxford, aiming to support the social, spiritual, and personal welfare of all our members.
We are proud to be one of the largest and most active societies at Oxford!
We offer an extensive range of provisions for the community and host a variety of exciting events throughout the year. No matter what your interests are, the Oxford ISoc has something for you!
Join us for an array of social events, including game nights, dinners at restaurants, punting excursions, pizza gatherings in the prayer room, and a range of other engaging activities. These events provide the perfect opportunity to forge lifelong friendships.
Experience solace and growth through our wide range of spiritual events, catered to all levels. From hosting esteemed speakers to conducting a weekly Qur’an Tafsir class to organising reflection circles, we ensure there’s something enriching for everyone.
Before coming to Oxford, I was worried about how welcoming I would find the unfamiliar environment. I was grateful to find a tight-knit community of brothers and sisters who look out for their fellow Muslims. I found my home away from home at Oxford, and I pray that you will find yours too.
Our ISoc truly has something to engage every member. To get a glimpse of our vibrant society and stay updated with our upcoming events and initiatives, follow us on Instagram: @oxforduni_isoc
Should you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Feel free to join us at our future events. We look forward to meeting and welcoming you in person to our community.
Assalamu’Alaikum
Aman Sultan
OUISoc President 24/25
