Fortifying Our Family: Cultivating Respect and Resilience | 61st Annual ISNA Convention

Speakers: Rami Nour, Zainab Alwani, Waleed Basyouni & Mohamed Magid

Moderator: Risana Nizam Chowdhury

The seeds of resilience, cohesion, and societal growth are sown within the sturdy foundation of family bonds. For Muslims, family constitutes the most profound yet subtle test, although we often take it for granted and instinctively seek solace and support within it. The Qur’an offers invaluable reminders and guidance to cultivate strong, tightly knit family units, where every member communicates and acts with a harmonious blend of empathy, even amidst disagreements (Surah Ash-Shura 42:41-43). Translating these teachings into actionable goals for our time will foster an environment conducive to the greater good of all, advancing towards a more united and thriving community.
