Fortress of Faith: Protecting Your Deen in an Ever-Changing World

Saad Tasleem

8:40 PM
Muslim youth struggle to achieve a balance between their Islamic ideals and integrating in with the Western world in a changing American culture. How do we learn to treasure our faith while surrounded by a world that doesn’t participate in it? Shaykh Saad Tasleem discusses how we can find the right path to protect our deen while navigating these unfamiliar waters.

Internalized Islamophobia: Shame vs Pride in Being a Muslim
Linda Sarsour

12 PM
There is one term that every American is familiar with in today's mainstream media: Islamophobia. Many of the people we interact with on a daily basis are Islamophobic and openly despise our community. It gets to the point where we adopt the islamophobic mindset and hesitate to overtly declare our faith. Let's discuss how Muslim youth can rediscover their true self and be proud of their identity.

Opening the Front Door: Balancing Culture and Religion at Home
Saad Tasleem

Even in this day and age, keeping culture distinct from religion can be difficult. Have you ever wondered if something is truly Islamic or simply a part of your culture? How do we practice our religion if our culture contradicts it? Join us as we address cultural and religious differences, as well as how to handle them in your own home.

Allyship: The Key to Unlocking the Power of Diversity
Linda Sarsour

8:20 PM
As a new generation of activists emerges via social media and other platforms, we must remember that solidarity is more than a concept; it is a verb. Palestinians, Afghans, Uyghurs, French, Yemenis, and others are subjected to unimaginable levels of social and political tyranny. What can we, as Muslim youth, do to assist our brothers and sisters who are victims of oppression, malnutrition, and apartheid, among other things? How can we best utilize our resources to assist Muslims who are in severe need? What does it mean to stand in solidarity with all Muslims around the world? Join us as we discuss how to be an ally and your role in activism as Muslim youth.
