I.LEAD Lite 2022

Description

This year's theme is "Protecting Our Future: Honoring The Advice Of Luqman"

The advice of Luqman encompasses many aspects of our lives including gratitude, patience, and determination. In a time where our Muslim identities are constantly being challenged, the advice of Luqman serves as a guide to good moral character and forbearance in the face of injustice.

This year’s I.LEAD conference discusses the importance of strengthening Iman, standing up to injustices facing Muslims, and better preparing for the future by protecting Islamic values through the advice of Luqman.
