You are invited! 877-WHY-ISLAM WINDOW TO ISLAM 2014 – “WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?” “Where did we come from?” and “Where are we going?” are two central questions concerning the existence of humankind. Whether one believes in the existence of a God, the non-existence of a God, or chooses to remain undecided, these questions shape our attitude to life. This section will explore attitudes towards worldly matters such as wealth, status and fame and how these are dependent on our views on the purpose of life. Sat 24th May 2014 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm Rooms 314,315 1. What’s Your Goal? Purpose of Life * The American Dream - Sh. Yasir Qadhi * Take Your Heart Back! What is meant by “idolizing” something? - Ustadah Yasmin Mogahed * What is the meaning of life? What’s it all about? - Dr. Tariq Ramadan Happiness is a feeling that resides in the heart and characterized by peace of mind, tranquility, a sense of well-being, and a relaxed disposition. It is part of the innate human nature to seek happiness. However, problematic relationships, financial challenges, loneliness, barriers to career progression and health problems are just a few of the challenges people face while seeking to achieve happiness in this world. One of the most “elusive” goals of every human being is “Happiness.” At the “Window To Islam” symposium, speakers will explore, along with the audience, how the balance of happiness is disrupted by life’s challenges and the approaches available to resolve such issues.
