Building Resilience: Responding to Crises with Faith

  • Being patient and resilient does not mean that we are indifferent to transgressions and suffering. Rather, it means that, we strive to respond with wisdom while upholding our principles of compassion and justice. Hoping for divine intervention does not mean abandoning our efforts.  
  • Three steps to take when facing crises: i) provide aid through available means; ii) foster peaceful conversations about justice and humanity; iii) return to Allah in servitude and prayer.
