With 10 executives and 6 directors hard at work, we strive towards to serving the best interest of Muslim students on the UTM Campus, promoting unity, joint action and Islamic awareness amongst the Muslims. Known as one of the largest and most active clubs on campus, the MSA has a 25 year reputation at the University of Toronto at Mississauga as an integral organization promoting healthy social, a

cademic, and religious initiatives to further advance student life at UTM. The MSA has a resonant character as a collective body of members and executives who work sincerely and tirelessly to unite all Muslims on campus. Whether this shows through in the yummy Ramadan iftars that the MSA puts on for free, the inspiring Islamic lectures hosted throughout the year, the weekly Jumuah Prayers, the incredibly beautiful experience of Islam Awareness Week, or all the various artistic, inspirational and politically active events that are put forth – a true sense of community is realized throughout the year that leaves a lasting impression on all MSA students.
