We are comforted to know that in our life’s most harsh moments, Allah (SWT) does not abandon us. The weight of Revelation shook the foundation of the Prophet (SAW)’s existence and comforted his heart during his difficult moments.

In this new course, Sheikh Dr. Omar Suleiman talks to us about how the Divine fingerprints are always on the perfect timing for everything in our life. Every life event, even with its hardship, has its place in our lives. Our Creator is our unabiding comfort and succor at those moments.

9 a.m. to 12 p.m. | Saturday, February 4 | MCC Prayer Hall | Limited space (please join waitlist once full) at https://mcceastbay.org/revelation | Tickets will go live at 5 p.m.
