The next places to visit on his wish-list are Mecca , Medina, and Qadian.    He says, "It would be fascinating to visit and see the places where our spiritual leaders, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) and Promised Messiah (as) lived and spent their lives. 

Usman has been involved with MKA for a very long time and continuously looks forward for the future MKA events.  His involvement with MKA has benefitted him by keeping him close to the community.   Moreover, his contributions to MKA have made him a great member to have as part of our Regional Aamila.
