"The duty of a Muslim is to at least bear witness to injustice and suffering. Palestinians are sacrificing their bodies. They are bearing witness to this injustice, to this slaughter, to this devastation. So what is your role?"

This clip comes from the phenomenal speech delivered by Jana Al-Akhras at last year's Annual Usuli Conference. Interested in a weekend full of phenomenal speakers, interesting and unique panels, and the opportunity to meet like-minded Muslims? Tickets are on sale now for this year's Usuli Conference, happening in Columbus, Ohio. Early bird pricing ends September 1st!
