Autumn is here 🍂 and we can't wait to catch up again. We have Friendsgiving Halaqa this Sunday!

The topic is.... 🥁 🥁 🥁

"Does Allah Want You To Feel Better?: "Relief begins with the first step into Jannah."

We are often wired to chase comfort, balance, and quick wins in our lives. But what if growth in our faith and lives require discomfort?

Come and join us as we dive into Sheikh Omar Suleiman's powerful khutbah, “Does Allah Want You To Feel Better?”

Most importantly, we will discuss how reframing our struggle here defines our place in the next (Jannah).

Join us for quick refreshments as we share our reflections!

*Sisters Only* 😉

Bring your Quran (in Ingles or Español, physical or digital) and share your reflections with us. inshAllah (God willing), we'll see you!

Get there on time so we can grab a good space for usor order a coffee/bite. Following this gathering, some of us will be attending the "Reflecting on the Quran" event with Dr. Rania Awaad at ICNYU, which includes lecture and dinner, and you are more than welcome to join! Link on BIO 🔗
