ma salaam Announcement: Muslim Men Against Domestic Violence an initiative of the Baitul Salaam Network, Inc. located in metro Atlanta is looking for leaders to organize men around the issue of domestic violence in the Islamic ummah. The ideal candidates will be able to work with women (respect their input and intellect), be willing to learn about the issue of domestic violence (take workshops/classes) and be very balanced in their personal lives with women and children. The duties of the organizers (local, regional and national) will be to encourage men to learn more and to take the lead in advocating against violence against women and children. Must be willing to organize at least two training sessions per year that will focus on leaders in the communities where they live (one for Imams/Amirs and male leaders) and one for women who are leaders of organizations, committee chairs, etc. The leaders of this initiative will work very closely with the leadership and volunteers of the Baitul Salaam Network, Inc. to establish the necessary resources for men in our community to get the education and training to be of service to their families and the whole community, insh'Allah. Must be willing to help fund raise to help expand the overall efforts of the organization. This will benefit all. We strongly encourage young men ages 25-40 to consider stepping up and taking on this role, insh'Allah. You do not have to be an Imam/Amir. You do not necessarily need to be a scholar. We need men with pure intentions, basic knowledge of the Quran and Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), true love for humanity and organizational skills to take on this endeavor, insh'Allah. Must have four to six hours per month available to volunteer for one year. After one year a stipend maybe available for these positions through fund raising. Must be able to begin by May 1, 2008, insh'Allah. All who are interested must submit to a very basic background and reference check.
