Muslim Fun Day

Muslim Fun Day

"Islamic leisure Ltd is an up and coming leisure provider in
the UK focusing on the needs of the Muslim community. Many
of the leisure facilities in the UK are unsuitable for
Muslim use due to the presence of alcohol, music & gambling
onsite to name just a few of the Muslims concerns. We at
Islamic leisure aim to liaise with existing leisure
providers and arrange environments that are conducive to
Islamic regulations whilst retaining the 'fun factor'. The
ultimate aim is to fill the void in the arena of Halal
leisure for Muslims.

Our biggest project to date is the upcoming ‘National
Muslim fun day at Alton towers 2006’. This event has been
booked exclusively for our guests and will be held on Sunday
17th September. We have arranged with Alton towers to ensure
no music, gambling or alcohol is allowed on the day as well
as segregated adult ride areas, halal food stalls & prayer
areas. We hope this day will live up to all your
expectations and be a part of your happy memories for years
to come.

Islamic Leisure – Bringing Islam & Leisure together."

i don't think they'll enjoy the music at alton towers, but
then again i don't think anyone does.

I just think this is a strange event, really. I'm sure
Muslims can bear to be with us infidels and our infidel
treats on a day out at Alton Towers-well, the Muslims I know
would be fine with it-and it seems strange a whole day at a
theme park should be devoted to what is effectively
seperating them from people of other faiths.

as a muslim i kind of agree with your thoughts cs2x that to
me it is kinda silly, but:

but a lot of muslims are very very practising and therefore
may not want to sit on rides with members of the opposite
sex or do things they feel are compromising their
religion..... ovbiously this market does exist and thus this
day has sold enough tickets / got enough interest to go
ahead.

Presumably AOL are happy for them to use the AIM icon on the
"Book online" little window. Nice little gesture.

And I am sure attendance figures will be swelled by today's
news of Dozens hurt on Alton Towers ride

"The ride is billed as "a speeding locomotive that's out of
control"

Yeah, they'll have to upgrade some of those older rides..
perhaps to something more contemporary like "experience the
thrill of being helpless on an airplane that's hurtling
towards destiny and a very large building"
