A wave is moving through our Minnesota Muslim community, one calling for real accessibility in our faith spaces and greater awareness and acceptance of disability as part of the human experience.

After successfully hosting a four hour disability focused segment at this year’s IANA Conference centered on inclusion and empowering children and adults with disabilities and their families, we are honored to continue this important conversation at the Minnesota Muslim Convention with our Deen & Disability Panel Discussion.

Featured on the panel are: Anisa Hagi Mohamed, Deqa Muhiden, and Imam Bilal Muhammad, moderated by Amina Adan.

This work is not new to our deen. Surah ‘Abasa reminds us through the story of Abdullah ibn Umm Maktoum (RA), a blind Companion, that people with disabilities are not to be overlooked or pushed to the margins. Islam recognizes disability as part of the human experience and calls us toward dignity, accommodation, and belonging.

Islam accommodates disability. Islam normalizes disability. Our Muslim spaces should reflect that.

Join us as we talk about creating communities where everyone can learn, worship, participate, and belong.
