On Tuesday 25th March 2008, in a packed Grosvenor House on Park Lane MyAdhan.com won the 8th Muslim News Ummul Mu’minin Khadijah award for Enterprise Excellence for 2008. There were in fact three finalist from a pool of many nominations. The judges actually couldn’t decide on one winner and also gave Saaf Pure Skincare an award as well, Tahira Foods was the only other finalist.

The aim of the The Muslim News awards is to recognise and celebrate the unsung heroes and heroines of the Muslim community, who are future role models. The event was attended by VIPs and guests from the worlds of public service, business, sport and the arts as well as senior officials from all the UK political parties. In the previous years, the guests of honour have included Tony Blair, The Prince of Wales and Gordon Brown.

Readers of The Muslim News were invited to nominate individuals and organisations who have demonstrated excellence in fourteen different fields. These range from science and engineering to community development and the arts. An independent panel of seven judges reviewed the nominations and produced a shortlist that receive an award on the night.

MyAdhan.com is proud to win this award and is motivated more than ever in extending the services it provides, Inshallah.

Here is the complete list of Winners for 2008 for each of the 15 categories.
