Challenges facing Muslim Youth: Post 9/11

The Forgotten Nation: Kashmir

Khalila Sabra, Muna Ali

Ghulam Nabi Mir

قال أبو سفيان: " ما رأيت أحدا من الناس يحب أحدا كحب أصحاب محمد محمدا"  قال عمرو بن العاص "وما كان أحد أحب إلي من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ولا أجل في عيني منه . وما كنت أطيق أن أملأ عيني منه إجلالا له . ولو سئلت أن أصفه ما أطقت . لأني لم أكن أملأ عيني منه . ولو مت على تلك الحال لرجوت أن أكون من أهل الجنة".  لماذا أحب أصحاب محمد محمدا (صلى الله عليه وسلم) إلى درجة استعدادهم التام بأن يبذلوا أنفسهم وأموالهم وأهليهم فداء له, ولماذا يزداد هذا الحبُّ له والإرتباط به مع إزدياد معاشرتهم له؟ وكيف لنا أن ننمي هذا الحب في قلوبنا  وبيوتنا؟

A new environment was created post 9/11 and new challenges emerged for the youth afterwards. Get an understanding of what your children or the youth in your community went through in schools, public places, and events.

This session will highlight the current state of affairs in Kashmir as well as the challenges the Kashmiris having been facing through the years and what we can do in the U.S. to help them in Kashmir.

لقد ضربت الثورة المصرية الحديثة نموذجاً فريداً للثورات السلمية التي أحدثت تغييراً ضخماً في وقت قصير. ماهي الأسباب التي أدت إلى إشتعال الثورة المصرية وماهي التحديات التي تواجهها هذه الثورة وخصوصاً بعد حصول الاسلاميين على نتائج مذهلة في أول إنتخابات تشريعيه بعد الثورة؟

The Egyptian revolution gave a unique model for the peaceful revolutions that brought about a huge change in a short time. What are the reasons that led to the ignition of the Egyptian revolution and what are the challenges it is currently facing especially after the Islamic movement achieved amazing results in the first elections held after the revolution?

“And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought” (30:21). Every marriage has its high and low points and navigating through can be difficult. From Islamic teachings and everyday experience, let us assist you in supporting your marriage foundations.   Strengthen your relationship with your spouse by using the practical tools you’ll learn in this session to avoid and deal with conflicts in your relationship.

Muhammad and his Companions. “Putting belief into action”

"You will be with those you love." (Al-Bukhari) The Muslims had never rejoiced as much they did when they heard this hadith. Let’s live these minutes in the company of Muhammad (pbuh) and his Companions (raa) exploring the true meaning of our “love” to them and how can we translate this love into actions which can raise up levels in the “Jannah” enjoying their company which we have been deprived of in the Dunia.

Which Route To Take: The Presidential Election 2012

بين العدل الاسلامي و الظلم الدولي

** with Live English Translation **

Safaa Zarzour , Nihad Awad

& Zaher Sahloul

راغب السرجاني

The US Presidential election is coming in few months and we as a community need to become a recognized voting bloc. Come and get insight into which presidential candidate benefits your needs and the Muslim community. Advice will be given on how community members and centers deal with the election and work collectively to register voters in the community.

This lecture addresses the big difference between the aspects of Islamic justice, which all humanity has enjoyed under the rule of the Islamic Civilization, and the fake justice assumed by the contemporary civilization and its world order. The Islamic justice was an application of Allah’s immortal system, which has never differentiated between people due to ethnicity, religion, or language. On the other hand, the current world order is in its reality an aggression, injustice, and favoritism based on interests and balanced calculations. The events in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the recent past and the events in Palestine in the past and at the present time bear witness to this discrepancy.

في هذي المحاضرة نتعرض لبيان الفريق الكبير بين مظاهر العدل الاسلامي الذي نعمت به البشرية في أوقات الحضارة الاسلامية والتي جاءت تطبيقاً لمنهجه الخالد والتي لم تفرق بين الناس على أساس العرق أو الدين أو اللغة وبين العدل الزائف الذي تدعيه الحضارة المعاصرة ونظامها الدولي والذي هوى في حقيقته ظلم وعدوان ومحاباة مبنية على المصالح والموازنات. فأحداث البوسنة والهرسك بالأمس القريب و أحداث فلسطين في الحاضر و الماضي خير شاهد على ذلك.

This lecture presents and discusses the most important intellectual and political challenges facing the Islamic movement in dealing with the new reality in the Arabic countries which hosted the “Arabic Spring” and especially it has been legally recognized after many long year of the secret Dawa work. How should the Islamic movement in these countries deal with the other movements and ideologies which might completely differ with it and their presence can’t be ignored?

“What destroyed the nations preceding you, was that if a noble amongst them stole, they would forgive him, and if a poor person amongst them stole, they would inflict Allah’s Legal punishment on him. By Allah, if Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad stole, I would cut off her hand.”  A look at how Islam encourages justice on a global scale that ensures that rights of all people.

Rescue Yourself from Hellfire: Personal Development "Tarbiya" Plan

"وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتِ وَيُحَرِّ‌مُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْخَبَائِثَ وَيَضَعُ عَنْهُمْ إِصْرَ‌هُمْ وَالْأَغْلَالَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ......." (الأعراف 7:157).  لقد حرر محمد (ص) البشرية من أغلال العبودية لاعدائها الأربعة: النفس، الدنيا، الشيطان، الهوى بكمال عبوديتها لله وحده وبصفاء اتباعها لهديه. فمن حسنت عبوديته لله سمت روحه فلم يقبل بذلٍ أو هوانٍ إلا لله سبحانه. ما أثر العبودية لله على الشعور بالعزة والحرية؟

“..and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them” (Al-Araaf 7:157). Muhammad (pbuh) liberated humanity from the shackles of slavery to the four enemies; self, Dunia, Satan and desire. This is done through its complete servitude to Allah and the sincere compliance to His Guidance. Therefore, whoever perfected his servitude to Allah, will not accept any kind of humility except to Allah, Almighty. How would practicing the real servitude to Allah lead to the great status of pride and freedom?

“And those who say, "Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous." (Quran 25:74) Get a look into problems facing some Muslim families like abuse and domestic violence and how to handle these situations if one is confronted with it. This session will also cover how families deal with the difference between their culture and the society around them. Come to learn how important it is for Muslim families to be more connected with the social environment and social issues around them in order to be more productive in their communities..

“He has succeeded who purifies it, And he has failed who instills it [with corruption].” (Quran 91:9-10). In this session, MAS & ICNA will present a complete program of Personal Development “Tarbiya” which both organizations are using for years leading to producing hundreds of Muslims who are spiritually charged, intellectually deep, morally upright, socially active, civilly engaged, and personally dynamic. Come and know the recipe. If you are interested, you can sign up for the “Tarbiya” program in your locality.
