How should Muslim youth in non-Muslim countries maintain their Islamic identity?

In the Name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Mercy-Giving

 

All praise is due to Allah. Peace and blessings be upon His Messenger Muhammad.

 

Muslim Youth can maintain their Islamic identity only by:

 

1- Imparting sound Islamic beliefs and practices at home. Allah says โ€œO you who believe, save yourselves and your families from the fire of hell, whose fuel is human beings and stones: in charge of it the angels who are stern and severe, who do not disobey God in whatever He has commanded them, but [always] do what they are bidden to do. (At-tahrim 66: 6)

 

2- Exposing the youth to the authentic Islamic knowledge and inculcating in them a desire to enhance learning and practice through those who trained and reputable.

 

3- Engaging them in the activities that foster a sense of community and belonging. Prayer or worship alone is not sufficient; instead they need to be part of a spiritual community with shared values and beliefs;

 

4- Praying to Allah constantly: โ€œOur Lord, Grant us joy in our spouses and our offspring, and include us among those who are ever mindful (and conscious) of You.โ€ (Al-Furqan 25: 74)

 

Almighty Allah knows best.
