Assalamu Alaikum, Introduction to Muslim Youth Work & Level 2 Muslim Youth Work
We are living in unprecedented times. Muslim youth are facing a plethora of challenges ranging from gang and gun crime, to drugs and alcohol; relationships and teenage pregnancies to questions of sexuality; from crisis of identity and citizenship to being apparently under pressure of being drawn into violent extremism. These challenges lay a great burden upon us. As Muslims we are duty bound to help each other and particularly guide our future generations. What will you do? 'People are the dependents of Allah; the closest to Him are the most useful to His dependants.' (Sahih Muslim) Muslim Youth Skills is pleased to announce that it is delivering a 2 day intensive 'Introduction to Muslim Youth Work' course in London to help start the process in responding to some of these issues faced by young Muslims. Those who complete the Introduction course can enroll onto Level 2. "I regret that i did not learn about youth work sooner. Examples from Sahaba made me feel I have been idle and need to do a lot to change myself and help others" Robina Introduction course Blackburn Date: Saturday 10th & 11th October 2009 Time: 10.00 am - 5.00 pm Cost: £87 London Date: Saturday 24th & 25th October 2009 Time: 10.00 am - 5.00 pm Cost: £87 Birmingham Date: Saturday 21st & 22nd November 2009 Time: 10.00 am - 5.00 pm Cost: £87 For further details on the Introduction course - http://tinyurl.com/lt5ddu Course video - http://tinyurl.com/koof9j "I did not expect to be given so many references to the Prophet (saw) and the Qur'an - loved it."
