Altaf Husain – VIcePresident of Yaqeen Institute

Assalamu alaikumratullah.

This is Haltaf Hussein.

I currently serve as the vice president of

the Yakin Institute

for Islamic Research and, really it's just an

amazing,

dream come true for all of us.

I hope as you listen and you get

to know,

the message of Yaqeen that inshallah

you aspire to join us and,

share the message and share the products of

Yaqeen

with, all of your family and friends.

You know, sometimes when we think about all

the major challenges facing Muslims,

one of the things we take for granted

is the certainty of faith

that somehow all of our children will just

sort of internalize the teachings of Islam,

and despite all of the

attacks in the external environment,

somehow they'll just sustain that.

One of the amazing ironies is that we

push our children in elementary, middle school, high

school, college,

and by the time they're done with all

of that education, they must have read thousands

of pages,

thousands of pages of books and journal articles

and other materials to to understand systematically

the the the notion

of, what is Islam and what are the

key teachings of Islam.

And one of the things I find ironic

is that we don't push them

similarly nor do we provide resources to them

so that they could have that certainty of

faith.

And so Yatin

is dedicated and and we are focused on

producing

some of the state of the art,

studies, if you will, on on the major

topics, whether they're trending or they're not trending,

but topics that are of relevance to our

children and our even contemporary

society, even parents, families,

but more so so that the focus is

on

the finding a message, a source that they

can say, you know, I'm I have a

question about such and such. I went to

the Yaqeen website. I went to such and

such study. Or I was writing a paper

in my class and I needed a resource

that I could cite a paper from Yaqeen

and so on and

so forth. So we hope really that you

will, take advantage of all of the resources

and once again we invite you to, join

us and to support us at the Yaqeen

Institute For Islamic Research.
