"Muharram Majalis at Park51 (Gatherings & Lecture Series)," from the Park51 blog, December 2 (thanks to Weasel Zippers):
In the spirit of intrafaith peace and understanding, Park51 is honored to host a series of majalis (lectures) during the first ten days of the Islamic month of Muharram 1432. Muslims of all denominations and the wider community are welcome to learn and share with Shi'a Muslims in the Shi'a commemorations of the exemplary life of Imam Hussayn bin Ali, the beloved grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, Peace be Upon Him. These religious lectures will discuss the importance of faith, spirituality, hope, perseverance and social justice. [...]
This event is a closed media event. What occurs and what is said at and during this event by all participants is considered off the record and not for attribution.
Understood!
