Sunday, October 23rd at 9:30am - 1:00pm
Please join our panelist, as we discuss the past, present and future of today's Mosques:
1. Imam Hamad Chebli
2. Chaplain Kaiser Aslam, Rutgers University
3. James Sues - Executive Director of CAIR-NJ
4. Suzy Ismail - Professor, Author, Founder & Head
Communication Counselor at Cornerstone
5. Imam Mohammad Qatanani, Islamic Center of Passaic
County
Discussions will include:
*The Past, Present, Future & Architecture of Masajids
*Creating an Inclusive, Welcoming, Dynamic Masjid
*Recommendations on Attracting Young Adults
Details, you don't want to miss:
1. The role of the mosque in the past - Origin. The reason the Holy Prophet (SAW) built the Mosque and what it was used for.
2. The role of the Mosque today - Is it fulfilling its purpose? Why or why not and what solutions would you propose?
3. The role of the Mosque in the future - Where does Youth & Young Adults fit in? What more can we do to encourage them to be leaders in the Masajids? Is the Mosque becoming more of a social place rather than a spiritual one? Should it be both? Address the state of the Ummah and what Masajids can do, as their part, to help make it better, at least in their own communities.
Everyone is Invited - All Faiths Welcome!
