ICCH is excited to announce the Blooming Through Faith program led by Mariam Anwar and  Saja Necibi and supported by Eya Youssef, Catherine Nguyen, and Sarah Muse, and mentored by Farah Mohamoud; This program will be for ages 13-18 years old. Classes will meet monthly on Thursdays 6-8PM starting October 29, 2026 and ending May 28, 2026. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Blooming Through Faith is a monthly halaqah and sisterhood space for high school girls to strengthen their connection with Allah SWT and grow spiritually, emotionally, and personally.  We want to create a space where young Muslim women feel seen, supported, and understood, a space where they can ask questions, build meaningful friendships, and learn how to navigate the experiences of growing up while staying grounded in their faith.  Through meaningful discussions, Islamic reminders, activities, and practical tools, we’ll explore topics such as:<ul><li>Understanding Allah’s love, mercy, and closeness </li><li>Strengthening our relationship with Allah and building sustainable habits of worship</li><li>Developing confidence, identity, and self-worth rooted in Islam</li><li>Navigating friendships, school, family, emotions, and life’s challenges through the lens of faith</li><li>Building emotional awareness, gratitude, resilience, and healthy coping skills</li><li>Creating genuine sisterhood and a supportive community of Muslim girls</li></ul> At the heart of Blooming Through Faith is the belief that our relationship with Allah shapes every part of who we become. Our faith is the seed; everything else in our lives blooms from it.  Meet the Team Program LeadsMariam Anwar has over five years of experience teaching and mentoring Muslim youth and has led a variety of educational and community programs for young Muslims.
