Before you start reading, have you watched the video above? If your answer is no, please go back and watch it first!

After all, seeing is believing. The largest Muslim Conference in North America is coming to Toronto in less than 2 weeks! It’s a program to attend with your whole family, both Muslim and non-Muslim alike.

For one ticket you get access to all 3 days of the conference including:

-25 renowned world speakers
-20 artists and performers
-230+ Bazaar stalls
-Well thought out Children’s program for your kids between the ages 4-11
-Youth program with speakers, artists and unique workshops for ages 12-18
-Speakers hangouts and Q & A sessions
- Al Quran competition; participants have a chance to win an Ummrah trip
-Thousands of Muslims to meet and interact with

Speakers this year include: Maulana Tariq Jameel, Shaykh Muhammad Ninowy, Shaykh Omar Suleiman, Shaykh Abdul Nasir Jangda, Mehdi Hassan, Dalia Mogahed, Ustadha Ieasha Prime to name a few.

That’s not just it, there’s also going to be an in-depth Knowledge Retreat program. Reviving the Islamic Spirit Knowledge Retreat is an annual program held around the RIS Convention to give seekers of knowledge an opportunity to study traditional Islamic sciences, in contemporary context, with some of the leading scholars of our time.



Knowledge is the greatest gift a believer can share and it is through such gatherings that students are introduced to the depth and breadth of Islamic scholarship. Rarely do Muslims living in the West get such opportunities and hence RIS KR strives to provide a conducive environment for students to pursue their quest for knowledge and enlightenment by studying the traditional sciences preserved through a chain of transmission handed to us through great scholars of the past.

Teachers for this year are as follows:

- Maulana Tariq Jameel
- Dr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr
- Imam Zaid Shakir
- Ustadha Ieasha Prime
- Shaykh Muhammad Ninowy
- Shaykh Yahya Rhodus



The reason the knowledge retreat is close to the heart of many is because of the kinship you get to feel over the 6 days, both with the scholars and the attendees. In the smaller Knowledge Retreat atmosphere, you get to really ask the questions you have of the teachers and have open discussions with them and other attendees. Over the duration of the retreat you feel like you are able to soak in the knowledge, learn with your peers and really grow as you engross yourself in a spiritually filled week. According to many, every retreat has felt transformational. It gave them necessary boost to be able to begin the new year on the right note. Setting goals on what really matters, rejuvenating from spending time with the righteous and being able to tackle any obstacles ahead is what this conference really helps with. So, give yourself the gift of knowledge and good company and sign up to attend the retreat with other students of knowledge!



If you’re coming from out of Toronto to attend either program, discounted flights and hotel stays are offered on the website www.risconvention.com . So, be sure to check those out. If you have any questions be sure to email the program organizers at info@risconvention.com

Undoubtedly, such events are a delight and there’s no chance you can think of missing them especially when you can easily go. This is what many Muslims look forward to every year, where they can feel united and contribute their fair share of knowledge. May Allah (SWT) keep blessing us with such motivational and fruitful Islamic events. Ameen. Notify your loved ones who can make their way to the most awaited event of the year!
