Where Is God in Haiti?

Posted by Saudah Mirza, Outreach on February 10th, 2010

Where Is God in Haiti?

Free Live Event with Sheikh Nuh Keller

Online on Saturday, February 13th at 4 PM GMT

“Allah suffices us, and is the best to rely on.” (Qur’an 3:173)

The recent earthquake in Haiti has destroyed homes, damaged infrastructure, and the Haitian government has now confirmed a death toll of 170,000 and estimated over 300,000 injured.  To add to the disaster, the rescue and relief efforts are severely limited by a shortage of resources.

In light of such large-scale destruction, many are left asking how this could happen and are now searching for answers.  Where is the Divine Mercy in all of this?  Where is justice? Where is the Divine Wisdom? Many atheists are now using this as another example that God does not exist.  Sheikh Nuh Keller will offer a reply.

Space are limited and pre-registration for this free event is required. To register and see the event time in other time zones, please go to: http://wherisgodinhaiti.eventbrite.com

After the lecture, Nadège Merceron, a representative of Masjid Allahu Akbar in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, will introduce the Haitian-Muslim Scholarship that will send students to SunniPath’s Dar Al-Tawfiq to study in Amman, Jordan.
