HISTORY
In 1968 a student called Aslam Ibrahim initiated the Glasgow University Muslim Students Association with aims to unify and activate the Muslims on campus. His aims were simple – to create a voice for Muslim students to be able to fully practise their religion at Glasgow University.
Since GUMSA’s inception, we have striven to fulfil these aims as well as create new ones in which we foster links with the university and other student bodies to work together for the community in Glasgow - and insha'Allah we hope to uphold these values.

PARTNERSHIPS
Presidency Time Line







GUMSA is one of 200+ Student Representative Council (SRC) affiliated societies at the University of Glasgow. By being partnered and registered with the SRC we are able to participate at Freshers Fair, organise events within campus buildings (including Friday prayer) and receive grants, Alhamdulillah. We thank them for supporting us.
We also work with the Muslim associations of Strathclyde, Glasgow Caledonian and West of Scotland Universities for talks and collaborative events. In addition, we work with other societies at University for guest speakers and other events. Again, we thank them for supporting us.
Allah Kareem.
