As Muslims in the west living in the 21st century our challenges are different to those before us. The problems we face internally within the Muslim community and the threats that attack us from external sources are unique problems for which we require unique solutions.
The quantity of young Muslims that leave the faith in our times is astounding, and as for the major sins of alcohol, drugs and pornography that is destroying our youth, the statistics would shock any one of us. Internally many in the Muslim community suffer from a spiritual weakness and an overall disconnect from God by overindulging in the sins of the body to fill the emptiness inside of them.
From the outside we have external issues such as Islamophobia whereby conservative practising Muslims are banned from practising certain elements of their faith.
Many are clueless about these problems, others just turn a blind-eye to all of this and don’t want to talk about these issues thinking they will just go away. These spiritual, physical and societal problems will only increase if we choose to ignore them.
Join Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi in this frank talk where he addresses the problems of the Muslim community in the west head-on without any political correctness and provides solutions on the unique challenges of Muslims living in the west.
