Joining us from Australia, acclaimed author Aftab Malik is a Guest Lecturer at the Department of Law, University of Sydney, and a permanent designated “Global Expert” on Islam at the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations. Having taught at the Summer Rihla retreats, Aftab has also written a number of articles that have been translated into numerous languages. His written work has been praised by a range of leading academics including John Esposito and Khaled Abou El Fadl. He joins us exclusively for his only speaking engagement in the United States. ~Faith and Forgetfulness in the age of distraction~ As Muslims, what should we do during turbulent times? Is quietism a bad thing? How do we preserve our faith and remain engaged in activist causes, or are the two mutually exclusive? How does the smart phone contribute to the distractions we face? *This event is open to all including families with children. Toys in the main hall as well as a separate room with an audio feed will be available.

UPF and MIC co-host: The Sultan & The Saint Final Film Premiere
During the Crusades, Saint Francis of Assisi risked his life by walking across enemy lines to meet the Sultan of Egypt, the Muslim ruler Al-Malik al-Kamil. This remarkable encounter, and the commitment to peace of the two men behind it, sucked the venom out of the Crusades and changed the relationship between Muslims and Christians for the better. Join us for this film premiere to learn about the remarkable spiritual exchange between the Sultan and the Saint, and the great risks they took for peace.

Building Bridges Through Comedy -Meet the Author
JOIN US SATURDAY SEPT 17 at 11:30 AM for a unique opportunity to meet author Zarqa Nawaz and discuss her new book: Laughing All the Way to the Mosque! Zarqa successfully uses comedy to share her experience as a Muslim growing up in Canada. Zarqa is the creator of the hit comedy Little Mosque on the Prairie. Little Mosque on the Prairie brought Zarqa Nawaz’s laugh-out-loud take on her everyday culture-clash to viewers around the world. And now, in Laughing All the Way to the Mosque, she introduces U.S. readers to her sometimes absurd, sometimes challenging experiences growing up as a Canadian of Muslim faith. A bestseller in Canada that was shortlisted for a number of Canadian literary prizes, including the prestigious Leacock Award for Humor, the book provides a much different perspective of the female Muslim experience—one that is normal, humorous, and positive. Please invite friends from the interfaith community! Refreshments will be served. Children are welcome. There will be crafts workshop for children. Cost is $5 per child. Hosted by NOVA's Novel Women and MIC. https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1411176705845098&tsid=0.1324506811797619&source=typeahead ABOUT THE BOOK In Laughing All the Way to the Mosque, Zarqa Nawaz introduces readers to her sometimes absurd, sometimes challenging experiences growing up as a Canadian of Muslim faith. It is an eye-opening, much-needed, and quite frankly, hysterically funny look at what it's like to straddle two cultures-and do so quite successfully. The book provides a different perspective of the female Muslim experience-normal, humorous, and positive. “This is the book of the summer…trust us you will cry from laughter.”— Canadian Living “Nawaz, mercifully, has a fatal weakness—irreverence. Praise be to Allah.”—Toronto Star “Her story will resonate with all independent-minded children of conservative immigrants, pulled between cultures and often falling foul of both.”—The Telegraph “A wry portrait of an immigrant daughter struggling against tradition, sexism, and the shalwar kameez.” —Maclean’s ABOUT THE AUTHOR Zarqa Nawaz created the world's first sitcom about a Muslim community living in the west. Little Mosque on the Prairie premiered to record ratings on the CBC in 2007. The show demystified Islam for millions of people around the world by explaining how practicing Muslims live their lives from dating to marriage to burying their dead. Now, Zarqa Nawaz has written her best selling comedic memoir, Laughing All the Way to the Mosque. Zarqa is also a frequent public speaker on Islam and comedy, gender and faith, and diversity in the media and has been featured in numerous outlets including The Huffington Post, CNN, NPR, Funny Or Die, BBC Radio 4, Lenny, NYT- Women in the World, and the Brian Lehrer Show.
