"The fruits that we will reap tomorrow [are] based on the seeds that we plant today." "I wouldn't mind if my son would be a garbage collector and sweep trash in New York City if he died a Muslim. My real pride is for my children to live their lives and to die as Muslims." "We don't want Muslim children to grow up simply to be professionals, to have a lot of money, to have a lot of education, if that doesn't lead them to be closer to Allah the Almighty." |

It's
not enough to simply have concern for our children's future and
the kind of world they will live in. Genuine concern is only
validated with action. Imam Siraj Wahhaj delivers a powerful
message meant to activate and motivate the audience. Muslims
of 
today cannot afford to be short-sighted
and must keep in mind that ultimate success for the ummah depends
on a plan that is long-term. What can we do today to ensure
a bright and secure future? What is the vision of the Muslims
for the future? Where will this vision come from? And how do
we accomplish this vision? A stern warning about the necessity
of protecting our youth, since they are the ones upon whom our
future hopes depend. Other topics discussed: the proper spirit
of Islam and Muslim children in public schools. (Duration: 50
min) Siraj Wahhaj, imam of Masjid at-Taqwa in New York, is well
known among Muslims in North America as a dynamic, motivational
speaker and tireless supporter of Islamic causes. He accepted
Islam in 1969 and received imam training at Ummul Qura University
in Makkah. He is the former vice president of ISNA and has served
on the Majlis Ash-Shura since 1987. He has appeared on several
national talk shows and interviews, especially about his anti-drug
campaigns. He received high praises from the media and NYPD
for initiating anti-drug patrols in Brooklyn, New York in 1988.
