AT THE CROSSROADS Faith, Vision & Resilience

The whole of humanity, Muslim community is no exception, is currently facing new challenges with alarming signs for threats targeting their beliefs, identity, and lifestyles. It looks like, Muslim Community is at the crossroads and needs to carefully identify the way ahead. The status of “crossroads” is not “over descriptive,” nor exaggerative. It is in fact the perfect word to describe the state of affairs that every Muslim in America lives in. At the crossroad, just like in reality, the Muslim has the choice of going in multiple directions with possibly different destinations and one of them might be the safest and most productive one. Still the question is how can one in such a situation identify the proper route while the surrounding environment is hazy and cloudy? It is really a confusing situation for most road seekers except just a few who did diligent work to keep their road compass always calibrated, their plans always realistic, and their resilience always elevated.
