| Why ArRum? | ||
| 'The establishment of ArRum can be taken as a sign of the coming of age of the Muslim community… Islam does not isolate different aspects of life but tries to bring them together, so the Club will emphasise the splendour of Islamic art and culture while providing a venue for productive networking between Muslims who are active in public life, in industry or business. At the same time, everyone who is seriously interested in Islamic culture and in other aspects of the tradition will be welcome and will have an opportunity to meet active and enterprising members of the community. I wish ArRum many blessings and the success it so richly deserves.' | ||

Hasan Gai Eaton, Author & Scholar |

'We need a networking facility with a strong Islamic slant but not burdened down with religiosity… Muslims need sophistication but not elitism… a sanctuary from city life'. |

||
| 'A Club of this kind is long overdue - one which brings together Muslims of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds and helps to cross the somewhat opaque boundaries which can often divide us.' | ||

||
| ArRum's trawl of the best of British Muslims has yielded a handsome catch. It appears to have few parallels as a centre for British Muslim professionals striding confidently in the right direction.' | ||

| ArRum could be a beacon for the 21st century, an alchemical marriage of ancient truth and modernity, and a great place to get a fantastic fresh fruit drink.' | ||

Daily Telegraph, BBC
|
||
| ' Algeria, Palestine, Lebanon it's important that ArRum remains a multi-national Club and targets Muslims from all cultural backgrounds.' | ||
