"The Muslim spiritual middle class is shrinking." | After Hours with Shaykh Abdul Nasir Jangda

#omarsuleiman #ammaralshukry #afterhours
What questions were Shaykh Abdul Nasir Jangda and his team keen on addressing in founding Qalam Institute and envisioning a sustainable Islamic institution of higher learning? How do we build institutions that don't become victims of 'the algorithm', and how is the American Muslim community changing over time?
We ask Allah SWT to have mercy on the father of Sh Abdul Nasir, Abdul Hamid Jangda, who passed away this past week. He was a founding pioneer in the greater Dallas Muslim community and an integral part of building the current Dallas Muslim community.

I’m watching this after Sh. Abdul Nasir’s father has passed away. May Allah shower him with His infinite mercy and grant him Al-Firdous. Ameen ya Rabb!

My favorite! The SHEIKH that made me fall in love with the seerah. The sheikh who introduced me to the Seerah! The one and only .... the BEST ❤❤

[@BC-xu8yq]

Miss having Omar Suleiman and Nouman Ali Khan together. Them together is so entertaining besides of being educational and inspiring.

I sincerely want to send my kids to Qalam Institute ❤

[@aqadri7250]

Salaams! My friend, Miriam, graduated from IOK and is attending Qalam. Hope she doesn’t mind that I name dropped lol. InshaAllah I just know she’s going to do great things for the Ummah one day. Ameen! Huge credit to Sh Abdul Nasir for building an amazing institution, MashaAllah. I’ve seen his talks before and I’ve always felt he was a positive, light-hearted spirit. Proof that when Allah SWT guides you to true knowledge of the deen, it softens the heart rather than hardening it. Also, really do like idea of 1-year program for professionals or students doing gap year. IA something to consider! ♥️

I renewed my islamic faith last year after my beloved father passed away.. i searched islamic lectures on youtube and came across omar suleiman and nouman ali khan. From then on i watched them through their channels on a daily basis.. through their lectures my iman has never been this strong.. may Allah allow them to continue what they're doing for the benefit of people who are still struggling with faith. Im so looking forward to see both of them in the same screen.. 🤲🏻

Jazakumullahu khairan! I've benefitted a lot from this podcast about dawah as a full time islamic sciences student. Please do it more often. May Allah preserve you all. Ameen. 26:30

Various comments are mentioning Noumsn Ali Khan. Ever since his inappropriate behaviour and those revealing text messages, i have never been able to watch him or look at him the same way. He never offered a public apology to all of us who used use his knowledge base. It felt like a betrayal to all his service users and global audience. I just cannot get out of my mind that this middle aged father had his lustful eyes on teenage girls who were studying under him

[@tanweerahmed1346]

When do you plan on interviewing Nouman Ali Khan?
