🤍 ICOI presents our next Youth Seminar: A CLEAN HEART

Assalamu alaikum everyone,

After the incredible response to our Back-to-School Youth Seminar this past August, alhamdulillah, we’re back with the next seminar in the series — A Clean Heart.

Some of the biggest struggles our youth face are the ones nobody can see.

Jealousy. Ego. Desires. Comparison. Friendships. Seeking attention. Holding grudges. Staying sincere. And trying to remain connected to Allah through it all.

A Clean Heart is a full-day youth experience designed to help our teens look inward, have honest conversations about what affects their hearts, and learn practical ways to clean, strengthen, and protect them.

🎤 And we’ve brought together an incredible lineup of speakers and mentors for the day! Our youth will have the opportunity to learn from teachers who understand the challenges young Muslims are facing today and know how to have the conversations that actually matter. Expect relevant topics, honest discussions, practical advice, and plenty of opportunities for youth to engage directly with the speakers.

And this is not just a day of lectures.

Youth can expect:
•⁠  ⁠Interactive sessions and real conversations
•⁠  ⁠Small-group discussions with mentors
•⁠  ⁠Activities and time to socialize
•⁠  ⁠Opportunities to ask the questions they actually want answered
•⁠  ⁠Practical guidance they can take home and apply
•⁠  ⁠Plenty of snacks throughout the day + dinner!

Our last seminar was intentionally capped at 50 youth to create a more personal and interactive environment—and we reached capacity. Because of the response, we’re opening 75 spots this time while keeping the same engaging format.

📅 Sunday, October 18
⏰ 1:00 PM – Isha (7:30 PM)
📍 Islamic Center of Irvine
👥 Ages 13–17
🎟️ $15 registration
🍽️ Snacks + dinner included
⚠️ Only 75 spots available

Register by visiting: https://secure.qgiv.com/for/prcrdw/event/btsbtrysc/

Please share with parents and families with teens ages 13–17, insha’Allah. Spots are limited, so we encourage families to register early! 

Please no walk-ins.
