How To Be The Man Your Community Needs | Iman Cave

Who’s holding you accountable for your goals this Ramadan? Sh. Abdullah Oduro shares how men can build strong bonds during Ramadan, from working out together and breaking fast as a group, to calling each other out and pushing each other to be better. Faith isn’t a solo journey, it’s built with the right people around you.

What role do you play as a young Muslim man living in a world riddled with Islamophobia? Are you accepting a position of victimhood or even perpetuating the harmful tropes, or are you manifesting your role as a masculine figure in the ummah?

Shaykh Abdullah Oduro is joined by a few special guests to discuss how Muslim masculinity can be elevated and how it can be used as a means of protecting our Muslim sisters.
