Ideal worlds are built from ideal nations. Ideal nations are built from ideal communities. Ideal communities are built from ideal individuals. No different from a building, the ideal Muslim community is constructed from the bottom up. Every brick is critical to its stability and success. Every father, daughter, mother, and son, that resides in it plays a vital role in its preservation.

Influencing one’s social atmosphere is not easy, and yet, it is the sole solution to not only our communal problems, but also to our individual and private ones. How then should we build this utopian society, a society where friends and family bring us closer to Allah? What can we do as individuals to bring change in our lives and become solid bricks in the public foundation? Where do we start?

As Muslim children in a this society, what responsibilities do we have to our parents? What are our rights? As a Muslim husband or wife, what are our duties and responsibilities upon each other? As practicing Muslim students, how do we survive in public high schools and universities?

This retreat seeks to discuss the answers to these critical questions and lay out for every concerned believer the Blueprints for Building a Muslim Community.
