What a weekend at convention. Oaktree Institute showed up with two sessions, a room with some of the most respected leaders in the American Muslim nonprofit space, and conversations that we believe will stay with attendees long after they left the building.

On Saturday, Oaktree Executive Director Rami Kawas moderated a powerful panel on Nonprofit Management in the World of AI, joined by Senior Strategist Mohammad Hasan and an exceptional group of organizational leaders including Sheriff Ahmed of MAS NY, Rasha El-Haggan of Tarbiyah Academy, Dr. Saima Azfar of ICNA Relief, Naeem Muhammad of Islamic Relief USA, and Edward Ahmed Mitchell of CAIR. Together they tackled the real questions: how AI is reshaping Islamic institutions, what is actually working on the ground in 2026, and what every nonprofit leader needs to start doing right now. The room was packed, the dialogue was honest, and the energy matched the moment.

Sunday brought a different kind of depth. Rami Kawas and Mohammad Hasan were joined by Sheikh Mohammad Elshinawy for a session on Leadership that Unites, Not Divides: exploring how Muslim leaders can navigate difference, manage conflict rooted in ikhtilaf, and build the kind of collaborative, principled leadership our communities genuinely need. It was grounding, practical, and long overdue.

Two sessions. Two different dimensions of what it means to lead well in 2026. We are grateful to everyone who joined us, engaged with us, and challenged us. This is the work and we are just warming up.

Eid Mubarak from all of us at Oaktree Institute 🌙✨

As we celebrate this blessed day, we’re reflecting with gratitude on the communities, leaders, and supporters who continue to serve the Ummah with sincerity and excellence.

May Allah accept your عبادات, sacrifices, and du’as from these sacred days, and may He place barakah in your families, your work, and your service to others.

This Eid, we’re reminded that strong communities are built through faith, leadership, and collective care for one another. Thank you for being part of that journey with us.

Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful and blessed Eid al-Adha 🤍

The next generation of Muslim leaders won’t build themselves. 🌙

These blessed ten days are an opportunity to invest in something that will outlive all of us:
leaders who will guide our masajids, nonprofits, schools, youth programs, and communities with clarity, integrity, and excellence.

At Oaktree Institute, our Youth Leadership Summits are designed to equip young Muslim leaders with the tools, mentorship, and vision they need to serve the Ummah for years to come.

But we cannot do it without your support.

In these sacred days of Dhul Hijjah, your donation is more than a gift—it is an investment in:
✨ Future community leaders
✨ Stronger Muslim institutions
✨ A generation prepared to lead with purpose

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“The most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to people.”

Help us build leaders who will benefit the Ummah long after these ten days have passed.

⚡ Support the Youth Leadership Summits today.
