The Role of Muslims in the West

About this lecture

In this lecture delivered at Al-Huda Foundation in Indianapolis, scholar and activist Ustadh Ubaidullah Evans reflects on the unique and miraculous history of the African American Muslim community — the only indigenous, intergenerational Muslim convert community in the Western world. Drawing on his own journey to Islam, he challenges Muslims in the West to see themselves as an embassy of the Prophet ﷺ, calling the community to a meaningful culture of da'wah rooted in inspiration, principled living, and the transformative power of la ilaha illallah.
