DID YOU KNOW
Muslim youth today are trying to form their identity in a world that often tells them Islam is something to hide. Theyre not just building faiththeyre fighting to hold on to it in the face of doubt, mockery, and erasure.
(Yaqeen Institute Youth Identity & Faith Crisis)
This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as your religion.
(Quran 5:3)
While we remember the perfection of Islam, our youth are struggling to believe it's enough. What legacy are we leaving behind if we dont make Islam feel whole, beautiful, and worth holding onto?
We see whats at stake.
Weve started the work.
