How can Muslim charities uphold the values of amanah (trust) in handling funds? Do charities have the right governance and processes in place? Should charities be ‘Cancelled’ by the Muslim community? Join us this Monday as we speak to a critical insider from within the Muslim charity sphere, Ustadh Rehan Salim about the above and more.

Roots Conversations Ep 16 | Marriage- What's the Point? with Ustadh Shabbir Hassan

Have you Ditched the Idea of Getting Hitched?

Marriage holds very little importance in modern society. For many, the whole process seems outdated and even the idea of marrying the wrong person puts many Muslims off from taking that big step.

Join us tonight with Ustadh Shabbir Hassan - Founder of The Nikah Co., who has conducted over 500 Nikkahs - as we delve into why Islam promotes marriage, why it is beneficial to society and why we need to dust off the cloudy lens through which we currently view marriage in today's times.
