[b]Why We Are Losing Our Youth[/b]

Yahya Abdul Rahman - Dec 12, 2007

As the facts surrounding the murder of 16-year-old Aqsa Parvez at the hands of her father surface, we begin to see a small sample of what many Muslim teens have to deal with on daily basis in this country.

Where is home?

Salam Brothers and Sisters,

I have not posted in a while but there is one topic on my mind everyday which I cannot conclude and would like to hear your views.
