COURSE OVERVIEW
Within the Islamic framework, the family is the primary social and foundational unit of society. Thriving in the Path of Allah (SWT) requires us to build homes and families that stay on the straight path. To ground ourselves through what is the greatest shift in social history means we must focus on understanding and supporting every segment of the family to be strong, steadfast, and thrive through the chaos of the life of this world and build a stable system of life based on the pure and true foundation and connection to Allah (SWT) that is established.
Additionally, islamophobia, campus da’wah, identity issues, and community contributions are all realities that Muslim youth in Canada are facing. Balancing all these realities, and learning to see and make sense of the world through an Islamic worldview to build a strong identity and thrive in the Path of Allah (SWT) are the key aspects of sessions within this stream.
Dynamic conversations and practical means of living Islam across every facet of our lives, rather than codeswitching and adopting multiple identities across different spheres is a difficult thing to achieve, and these sessions are focussed on addressing how to mitigate the gaps so youth can thrive, and fulfill their role, in the Path of Allah (SWT), in building generations of strong Muslims insha’Allah.
