The sole purpose of the convergence was to remind and equip students with Islamic knowledge and general ways of living. The gathering attracted students from various universities and colleges across the country.

In am interview with one of the students who attended the gathering , Daniel from Mzuzu University, said the reminiscent-function evoked the memories that he had about the same function that took place in 2016 but was quick to say this was the most organised function and hence needs to be conducted yearly as it addresses all life cycles from religious to moral spheres.
In his eloquent final-remark, one of the students (name withheld) on behalf of the student community that gathered there expressed his deepest tear-shading appreciation to the organisers.
In his somberly and impressive final remark, the student who is also a beneficiary of Mai Aisha Trust specifically thanked the organisation for its motherly support rendered to him up to university level since he was four years old when his parents left him. He thanked the two organisations for their continued support to the needy Muslim students across the country's universities, and secondary schools.
Among other activities, Ali-Mahommed Hassam and Mai Aisha Trusts are in the fore front lifting the lives of some needy Muslim students across universities, and colleges in the country by sponsoring them school fees and other necessities. Their sole aim as Sheikh Idana puts it, is to make Muslims independent both socially and spiritually and hence the program (Tarbiya) revives these areas.
Before departure, students together with officials from the two organizations were seen taking photos and sharing light together. Many of the participants asked for more of this kind of gatherings as they boost Islamic knowledge and relationships amongst Muslim students and universities/colleges in general.
