Orators
UMC once again brings you a rich fusion of national and international speakers. We return with some of the big names upon which the convention was built such as Shaykh Shady & Shaykh Ninowy. However, this year we have spiced up the line-up by introducing some new flavours to our panel of speakers. We are proud to introduce Shaykh Abduallah Madyun (USA), Mufti Kamani (USA), Abdul Jabar and the Islamic Minister for Hajj & Umrah, Shaykh Zied, who for the first time will be addressing such a large diverse audience in the UK .
Artists
UMC will bring you some of the best vocals to your ears. Inshallah, this year we plan to host the internationally renowned Zain Bhika who has confirmed his attendance for the convention. However, he is still awaiting his visa to be approved. We request you all to make dua that he obtains his visa. If he is unable to obtain the British visa then he will be unable to attend.
Zain Bhika is not the only talent on our stage. Due to popular demand from previous conventions we are once again honoured to bring back Talib al-habib and Muslim Bellal. In addition we will be introducing a pure vocal beat boxer, Hamza Fletcher, who will be delivering workshops with the youth.
Qari Muhummad Khalilal Azhari will be opening the convention this year with his beautiful recitation.

Muslim Marriage Events
A matrimonial event has been organised, inshallah, for the 3rd year running, and alhumdulliah many marriages have resulted from the event at the conference. Muslim Marriage Events will be conducting an Islamic matrimonial service (further information can be found on http://www.muslimmarriageevents.org/ ). BOOKING DEADLINE: MONDAY 18th JUNE 2012 after which prices increase.
A separate floor has been hired for the event which will be located within the venue, away from the main hall to allow for privacy purposes. Scholars speaking at the conference have been invited to observe and show their support.
2 events have been organised and people have the option to attend either one or both of the events (with a discount applied to those attending both).

age, status, wealth, occupation, siblings pecking order and their parents will not be an obstacle to whoever is introduced and else.
