Our Gallery
Racism is deeply embedded in so many Muslim communities around the world – from specifically targetting Black Muslims to the discrimination against people with darker skin, to the erasure and ignorance around the history of slavery, discrimination, and racism – we cannot just hope for miraculous change. We must first address the ongoing, systemic racism that holds back so many of our brothers and sisters today.

In 2007, the Parliament of Canada proclaimed October Canadian Islamic Heritage Month in recognition of the significant contributions the Muslim community has made to Canadian society.
Muslim-Canadians enrich our lives and contribute to the prosperity and heritage of our country through their outstanding achievements in many fields, including literature, mathematics, science, sports and the arts.
This month offers all Canadians a wonderful opportunity to reflect on and learn more about the history of Islam in Canada and the cultural diversity of Canada’s large Muslim community.
We are also conducting our very first Islamic Art Gala on 30th of October. More details here: https://fb.me/e/14k7oCCtw

Today on World Mental Health Day, we can choose to listen to others about their challenges. And, if we feel so inclined, we can also share our stories. Today is a day to drop judgments we may have grown up with or been taught. It is a day dedicated to erasing the stigma. We all deserve to live in the light, and we all can help spread our light!

While we are waiting on COVID-19 vaccines to be distributed fairly and equitably to people all over the world, we can help prevent the spread of COVID-19 by getting ourselves vaccinated when we have the chance. The unfortunate reality is that many of the people who have access to the COVID-19 vaccine still aren’t getting it.
Today, we're urging our global community of supporters like you to join us in this call to action.
Let’s all get vaccinated! Every day that passes is another missed opportunity to protect millions of people.
As a matter of fact, you can send us your vaccination photos to help encourage others! Show your support by being a good example to the rest of the world.
This effort proves that if we work together, we can help reduce the alarming number of COVID-19 cases. Because this pandemic won’t be over until it’s over for everyone, everywhere.
Here are some of our campers' weekly outputs during this year's Summer Camp.
Which theme is your favorite? Everything is awesome!
We hope you all had a blast participating in these exciting activities as much as we had! ✨
There is a stigma towards mental health issues in all communities and the Muslim community is no exception.
Due to the spread of the coronavirus and the accompanying lockdown, mental health difficulties are on everyone’s agenda.
It’s important to remember that mental illness is a disease that affects so many people. Shedding light on it will help dispel the stigma that surrounds it.
If you or a loved one needs help, visit our website for more information: www.healthymuslimfamilies.ca
As the #summer already closed, we have to say a big thank you to our amazing #summercamp staff who create magical moments for campers every day. The children in our community really benefited from the positive experiences you were able to provide. We could only photograph a few, but the thanks go out to all of you!
See you on the next! ❤️
GET VACCINATED WHEN IT’S YOUR TURN TO PROTECT YOURSELF, YOUR LOVED ONES, YOUR COMMUNITY, YOUR COUNTRY, AND THE WORLD!
With more people vaccinated in an area, the closer we get to protect the population.
Vaccines are safe. Vaccines work. Be part of the solution!
Are you done with your Covid vaccine shots? Share your photo in the comments!
The coronavirus is an overwhelming crisis, which none of us saw coming. It has affected each and every one of our lives, and we are all feeling anxious for the safety of our loved ones and those who are vulnerable around the globe.
We’ve put together some of the key duas you can recite for the protection of yourselves, your families and those most vulnerable in our communities. In this difficult time, let us use this tragedy to come together and unite in the name of Allah (SWT).
We’re so proud of the progress we’ve made in the lives of families together, but there’s still so much more to be done.
Like Fiza, you too can volunteer your time to give back to your community and connect with new people.
We believe that by working together, we can accomplish amazing things—and you’re an important part of that equation.
We’d be thrilled to have you onboard and can’t wait to change the world with you!
How do you wake up in the morning?
In order to achieve success, we need to learn how to focus these thoughts on what we want.
Ensure that you do the following on a daily basis: SWIPE>> until the end!
The National Sleep Foundation recommends between 7 to 8 hours a night for adults. Crucially, it’s important to find out how many hours of sleep works for you personally, and then try to achieve this. How can you tell? If you’re waking up tired and spend the day longing for a nap it’s likely you are not getting enough sleep. Record your sleep hours for a few weeks, and when you’re constantly feeling rested, these hours will give you an idea of how much sleep your body needs.
