ALIM's Online Monthly Book ClubHosted by Ubaydullah Evans, ALIM’s Monthly Book Club brings together readers for thoughtful conversations that go beyond the page. Each month, we explore books that challenge, inspire, and deepen our understanding of faith, self, and society — from Islamic thought and spirituality to literature, memoirs, history, social justice, and mental health.Monthly book selections are announced at the beginning of the month, so readers have enough time to read, reflect, and join us for an engaging, live discussion with Ustadh Ubaydullah and occasional guest authors (held on the last Wednesday of the month at 7/8 pm CST/EST unless noted otherwise).September Book ClubWhen the World Sleeps: Stories, Words, and Wounds of Palestine by Francesca Albanese.What does it mean to live through occupation, carry its wounds, and still hold on to hope for freedom?This September, our Monthly Book Club will explore this question through When the World Sleeps: Stories, Words, and Wounds of Palestine by Francesca Albanese.The first woman to serve as the United Nations Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Albanese conveys the spirit of a people through ten unforgettable stories of resilience and humanity.A courageous testimony to the harsh reality Palestinians face, the book raises critical questions about the past, present, and future of Palestine. What are the consequences of occupation? Under what conditions do Palestinians live? With the uncertain end of the war, will there be a Palestinian state? Will Palestinians have the right to self-determination and the ability to live in peace, free from coercion?Virtual discussion hosted by Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans: Wed, Sept 30 | 7 PM CST / 8 PM EST.Subscribe to receive a private recurring meeting link and invite to ALIM's Book Club group chat.Support ALIM’s valuable community resource by becoming a monthly donor!
