<div><strong>Help Us Strengthen Faith, Friendship, and Community at Indiana University</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The <strong>Muslim Student Association</strong> at <strong>Indiana University Bloomington</strong> is more than a student organization; we are a family. It’s a place for hundreds of students to find community, faith, and friendships while away from home. From<strong> Friday Halaqas</strong> filled with chai (tea) and conversation to community iftars, where <strong>Muslim</strong> and <strong>non-Muslim</strong> students come together to break bread, MSA is a place built on <strong>love, unity, and purpose. </strong>
