وَٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ وَٱلۡمُؤۡمِنَٰتُ بَعۡضُهُمۡ أَوۡلِيَآءُ بَعۡضٖۚ يَأۡمُرُونَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَيَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَيُؤۡتُونَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥٓۚ أُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ سَيَرۡحَمُهُمُ ٱللَّهُۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ,
Surah Taubah Ayat 71

The believers, both men and women, are guardians of one another. They encourage good and forbid evil, establish prayer and pay alms-tax, and obey Allah and His Messenger. It is they who will be shown Allah’s mercy. Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.
(9:71)

In a world where the lines between right and wrong can often become blurred, navigating gender relationships with respect, trust, and adherence to Allah’s guidance is more critical than ever. This session will take you through the lessons of the Incident of Slander, where the bonds of truth, standing against slander, and the importance of adhering to Allah’s laws on gender interaction were tested.

Together, we will learn the significance of truth in our interactions, the importance of standing up for those who are wronged, and how to build alliances for the betterment of our Ummah. This session isn’t just about understanding boundaries, but about learning how to work together to strengthen our faith and reaffirm our commitment to a life built on justice, respect, and adherence to Allah’s commands.
