Join us on for a special session of the Grounding on Righteous Anger as we explores the nature of one of our most controversial emotions: Anger

Led by visiting speaker Imam Anwar Arafat, this timely session highlights the oppressions and injustice in the world around us as well as our emotional response to such injustices.

We will ask questions including what is the role of anger in Islam? Can anger be used for good? What are the limitations and dangers of anger?

Featuring a talk and discussions, the event will begins promptly at our new time of 8:30 after Isha prayer and takes place in Qawha Cafe.
