MASCON Attendee Guidelines
The following guidelines have been put in place during the convention to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone in attendance. UNITY It’s important to uphold the values of unity by exhibiting brotherhood/sisterhood toward each other. Following the examples from the Quran and the tradition of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), please be courteous to one another and realize we are all here for the sake of learning and growing as a community. BENEFIT While we realize there are social aspects to the convention, we want to emphasize the benefit of attending the entire convention and learning from the esteemed scholars on site. To really reach your potential and bring back useful knowledge to your individual communities, it is as important to be present in sessions as it is to be in the hallways networking with friends. PRESENTATION Following the sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), Muslims are expected to be clean and neat in appearance, and uphold the values of our faith. We expect attendees to adhere to those guidelines and represent Muslims in the best possible way. ORGANIZATION Before coming on site to the convention each day, make sure you have your badge and materials necessary to ensure an enjoyable experience. The badges help to keep things running smoothly and make sure you are able to get into sessions that are restricted to registered attendees only. If you lose your badge, please head to registration for a replacement. FACILITY While you are on site, we expect you to exhibit the behavior of a true ambassador of Islam. There should be no running, loud talking, or horseplay in the halls. Food is not allowed outside the designated eating areas. You should only be in rooms assigned for your program. Do not loiter in lounges or staff offices without permission. Do not request the use of phones or other material belonging to the Convention administration or hotel without permission. BEHAVIOR We would like to remind attendees to behave in an appropriate and mature manner. Please do not sit on window ledges, run up and down escalators, or slide down railings. If you have children at the convention, please keep an eye on them and ensure they adhere to the guidelines. The opinions expressed herein by the guest speakers at the MAS-ICNA Convention are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the view of the Muslim American Society (MAS) or the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).
