At our last AGM people suggested both that we should hold our bring and share Food and Friendship meals in different places around the city and that we should try holding them at lunchtime instead of evenings.

So we are very grateful to the Unitarians of Upper Chapel, Norfolk Street, in the City Centre of Sheffield, who have invited us to use their premises in March.

The format will be the same, please bring some food to share (hot or cold, savoury or sweet, mostly vegetarian), if you are able. There’s no need to book, just come and meet people.

You are warmly invited to hear presentations by Mrs Christine Jackson and Dr Ismail Mesut Sezgin, with opportunity for questions and discussion.

Event Details

The Prophet Muhammad said “Only an honourable man treats women with honour and integrity, and only a vile and dishonorable man humiliates and degrades women.” Being a Muslim is often more than a religious identity. In order to have a deeper understanding of the real role of women in Islam, diverse perspectives on gender and women in Islam, and how Islam personally treats to women, we are holding a seminar with the participation of Dr Chris Hewer on Monday, 18th February 2019 at our community building in Attercliffe, Sheffield. We will have the special opportunity to listen to his insights and thoughts on women in Islam. The event will start at 6.30pm and will consist of two sessions and a refreshment break. We kindly invite anyone who is interested. We also believe that such events give us the opportunity to get together and get to know new people. Therefore, everyone is welcome. The event is free of charge.

Part 1: Dr Chris Hewer’s Speech

Refreshment break

Part 2: Questions and Discussion
