After Hours

Dr. Omar Suleiman & Shaykh Ammar AlShukry

Join Dr. Omar Suleiman & Shaykh Ammar Alshukry on After Hours! Over two decades have passed since 9/11. While Islamophobia persists, Muslims in the West have largely withstood the adversity of a sharp rise in anti-Muslim sentiment. After Hours explores the past and present of dawah in the West. How do we shape our approach to Da’wah over the coming 20 years? What can we learn from the past, what should we do differently, and what must remain at the center of our efforts moving forward?
