    - - “It seems as if the whole umma is represented, and always the best of each group. Sufis, Deobandis, Modernists, Salafis, etc., are all present – and in the time I’ve been there I’ve never witnessed any of the sectarianism witnessed elsewhere.” - Abu Yusuf Vazquez, Advanced level student 2015
      - “Alhamdulillah this has been by far my best year in a very long time. Being a full-time mother of two small children, ASI has been a break from the usual pressures of life and a time for spiritual growth.”
