Zaytuna College Fundraiser, New Brunswick, NJ

Imam Zaid Shakir and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf are coming to New Brunswick, NJ for Zaytuna College fundraiser on May 21, 2011.

I have this Zaytuna College inspired Artwork of bismillah (In the name of God) written in a pen form writing the first verse of the Qur'an revealed to Prophet Muhammad on 24x36 frame. Since this piece is for Zaytuna College fundraiser auction, I decided to include leaves of olives (Arabic Zaytuna!). The green leaves signify growth, maturity, life, and vigor. The leaves in gold and silver colors represent people based on the hadith of the Prophet "People are like minerals... gold and silver" a reflection of their inner dimension. I pray that Zaytuna College becomes a beacon of knowledge in the West.
