CONGRATULATIONS TO SHAMEEMAH SALIE
SHAMEEMAH SALIE APPOINTED AS AL JAMA-AHS SECOND MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT

Al Jama-ah Congratulates its second Member of Parliament who was sworn in earlier today: Al Jama-ah Party is pleased to announce the swearing in of its second Member of Parliament, Adv Shameemah Salie.
Adv Shameemah Salie was sworn in earlier today in the Speaker’s Boardroom at Parliament.
The party has now secured two Member of Parliament (MP) posts. The first post returned to the party’s leader, Hon Ganief Hendricks (who is now the newly appointed Deputy Minister of Social Development). Adv Shameemah Salie has taken up the second seat in Parliament and her position as councillor in the City of Cape Town will be filled by Adv. Yusuf Khan Dalwai.
Al Jama-ah extends its heartfelt congratulations to Member Salie and is confident that she would continue to be the party’s dissenting voice in Parliament.
FIRST SPEECH IN PARLIAMENT
Hon Adv. Salie’s Maiden speech as the MINI PLENARY on International Relations and Co-operation, 16 July 2024
” While promoting solidarity with the Palestinians’ liberation struggle, South Africa’s trades with Israel remains strong … amounting to almost 3 billion rand exported goods to this apartheid state; this is rather hypocritical!
AL JAMA-AH does not support a two-state solution; AL JAMA-AH supports a one state solution! We cannot claim ownership of land through a genocide
WE STAND IN SUPPORT
Shameemah Dollie Salie – I stand 200% in support of Advocate, Honorable Member of Parliament Shameemah Dollie Salie and Al Jama’ah in their firm stance against #cyberbullyingawareness political coercion, and the divisive tactics that threaten unity within our community.
It is clear that Al Jama’ah acted with integrity, refusing to be dictated to or pressured into decisions that do not align with their principles. The party made an independent and well-reasoned choice, demonstrating leadership and accountability to their constituents. Any attempt to misrepresent their position or threaten them into submission is not only unethical but also exposes the true intentions of those who seek to manipulate political narratives for their gain.
Unity within the Muslim community should never be sacrificed for personal or political agendas. As Muslims, we are commanded to uphold justice, respect, and mutual understanding. Attempting to strong-arm Al Jama’ah into a collective decision they were never a part of is a clear example of intimidation, which has no place in a democratic and ethical society.
Advocate Shameemah Dollie Salie’s response is principled, courageous, and a necessary reminder that we must resist efforts to create disunity. Al Jama’ah’s commitment to standing firm on their own strategy while respecting the cause at hand is commendable.
We will not be bullied. We will not be dictated to. And we will not allow political opportunists to create division for their own gain. Truth and justice must always prevail.
LETTER OF CONGRATULATIONS
RECEIVED WITH HUMILITY & THANKS FROM THE MUSLIM JUDICIAL COUNCIL

Dear Parliamentarian Shameemah Salie,

Your efforts in mobilizing support for Palestinian causes, advocating for cancer awareness, and addressing critical service delivery issues have not gone unnoticed. Your ability to engage with community members, provide essential support during crises, and elevate important social issues on various platforms has truly set you apart as a leader.
