Tuesday Speaker Schedule - 2004 Democratic National Convention - Georgetown U Imam to deliver benediction

Tuesday Speaker Schedule - 2004 Democratic National Convention Official Site

September 11 has been a boon and an unprecedented opportunity for Muslim presence at national events. I have already written about Mohammad Magid, imam of the All-Dulles Area Muslim Society (ADAMS) in Herndon, who participated in Ronald Reagan's funeral, and Dr. Muzammil H. Siddiqi of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) who delivered the invocation at the post-911 service at the National Cathedral. Tonight, Imam Yahya Hendi, the Muslim chaplain at Georgetown University (which declares its Catholic and Jesuit identity on its home page), will deliver the benediction at the 2004 Democratic National Convention.
