Many Muslim families are concerned about a growing distance between parents and children. Some young people appear to be drifting away from Islamic practice and the moral values it teaches. They may be influenced by peer pressure, social trends, or a culture that emphasizes individual choice over family and faith. In some cases, this can lead to harmful behavior, including involvement with gangs or other troubling influences.

At the same time, parents may be absent or less involved in their children’s upbringing, education, and emotional lives. This raises important questions: Are parents falling short in their responsibilities, or are children choosing to turn away from their families and faith?

The goal is not simply to assign blame, but to better understand the issues and consider how we can respond constructively.

Join us for an open and thoughtful discussion about the responsibilities of both parents and children in the light of divine and prophetic guidance. We’ll consider the pressures facing Muslim families and explore ways to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and guide young people toward Islamic values.

We look forward to seeing you there InshaaAllah!
