Assalamu Alaykum Brothers,

This is to invite you to attend our conference in Beirut, I believe Dr. Tanveer has already invited you.

As you may know that IMALB will be covering the expenses for 3 hotel nights, 2 gala dinners, 5 days lunch, all transportation for 2 members of IMA from each country.

This is to kindly ask you to send us, as early as possible , the names of your speakers and the topics he/she will talk about, because,  though we have speakers here, we prefer to  have speakers from abroad, and of course FIMA has the priority of speakers. We also need the copies of your passports. Your itinerary should follow soon.

Looking forward to welcoming you in Beirut, Lebanon.

Sincerely,
Dr. Fouad  Rifai
President / Islamic Medical Association of Lebanon
