  • Episode 153: Instilling Righteous Masculinity in Today's Young Men and the Al Qawwamun Retreat with Imam Jihad Mustafa
    2024/10/02

    After a bit of a hiatus due to busy schedules, Parvez and Omar are honored to be joined by Imam Jihad Mustafa, Founder of the Qawwamun Retreat. This was a wide-ranging conversation with Imam Jihad discussing how socially conscious Hip-hop brought him to Islam, how today's Zeitgest and pop culture has engendered a crisis of defining and exemplifying masculinity to young men, and how the Qawwamun Retreat for young men seeks to address these challenges.

    About Imam Jihad Mustafa Jihad Mustafa was born JC Wren and converted to Islam shortly after returning home from serving in the US Army in Germany. He served as Imam at Masjid Tasbeeh in Oakland before it's closing and in his tenure there also opened one of the few Muslim transitional and temporary living facilities. He has a background in business, financial advisory, security and organization. Jihad is the founder of Al Qawamun, an organization formed to develop and maintain righteous manhood based on Quran; as well as some branches stemming from it; including The Young Lions Program, Muslim Incident Response Team and Muslim Town Hall. In addition to maintaining his responsibilities, he is currently developing The United Muslim Association, an effort to unite Muslim Americans in the areas that effect us all regardless of ethnicity, school of thought, leadership or association.
