0.0000Seminar on Afterlife: Journey of the Soul by Shaykh Omar Husain in ICCD-MCC
What exactly happens once the soul leaves this world? The akhirah is something we hear a lot about, speak a lot about, and think a lot about. Yet, it is one of the subjects that brings up more questions than we have answers. Bring your family and join us in exploring the journey of the akhirah – from the moment of death, in the grave, on the Day of Judgment, crossing the Sirat, and everything else until the soul reaches its ultimate destination. We will be exploring the answers to questions such as – Why do the eyes look up when a person takes their last breath? Will Allah allow us to answer the questions in the grave correctly? What happens if you have the same amount of good deeds and bad deeds? Does everyone have to be judged? What is the Sirat, and why are some people prevented from crossing over it? How do I cross over it easily? Will the Prophet (s) intercede for us? Please see the attachment Join us for a special night with Shaykh Omar Husain and reconnect yourself with the next life – the everlasting life. Sh. Omar Husain is the religious director of MCECC in San Antonio. He is a graduate of Al-Azhar University.

So, what is the true Story of Nuh? What really caused the flood? What really happened to his family? How is he depicted in the Abrahamic faiths and in other ancient sources from India to Iraq? What led him to eventually make the du'a that unleashed the flood? What can we learn from Surah Nuh in the Quran? How does this Surah relate to the life of our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)? STORY OF NUH by Ustadh Adam Jamal How can the dua of one man cause one of the greatest floods mankind has ever seen? How can one man keep persevering for 950 years? How can one man have such complete trust in Allah SWT, despite so many worldly difficulties? How can I make my dua more sincere and accepted by Allah? How can I develop that level of patience and perseverance? How can I have that close, personal relationship with Allah, so that I can talk to Him and rely on Him in my darkest times? How can I still be grateful while going through my own trials and tribulations? These are just some of the questions the awesome story of Nuh (AH) answers.

0.0000American Muslim Youth: Navigating Between Traditonal Values and Modern Fads
American Muslim Youth: Navigating Between Traditonal Values and Modern Fads Muslim Youth born and raised in the west are facing a growing number of challenges by the day. Some of the factors contributing towards these challenges include steep rise in Islamophobia in the last decade, social media, internet, peer pressure, marriages outside the faith, loss of religious values and inclination towards atheism, recruitment by overseas extremist ideologies etc. Some immigrant parents find their teenage children who are born and raised in a western society go through a phase of identity crisis. The child struggles to reconcile his/her identity between a Muslim Youth and an American citizen. The talk will highlight the challenges faced by Muslim teens/youth living in the west. The Speaker will present practical tips and solutions on how to resist these challenges and yet maintain a balance between our faith and the norms of the western society. The talk will be delivered strictly in the context of Muslim Youth.

0.0000Mufti Hussain Kamani @ ICCD!
Rasulullah (S) is the noblest of men known to ever roam this earth — he was sent only as a mercy to mankind. Something we often forget about our beloved Prophet may peace and blessings be upon him is that he was the perfect example of a family member. In our modern times, an institution that's beginning to experience some hardships is the institution of family. As Muslims, when dealing with hardships — we look at the Qur'an and Sunnah for clarity. The scholar, hailing from the prestigious Qalam Institute Mufti Hussain Kamani will be visiting our community and discussing this matter of family and how Rasulullah (S) was the greatest family man there ever was. Come and join us in shaa Allah, and gather as we dedicate our Friday evening to the remembrance of Allah (SWT).
