Twins of Faith

Masya Allah! To say that I am excited is an understatement!





What is Twins of Faith?


The two Twins of Faith are knowledge and action. The concept of Twins of Faith has an underlying intent to get people active & to seek knowledge. Our goal is to educate and mobilize all people towards positive social activism.

The combination of knowledge and action is what separates this ummah from the previous ones; we find mention in the Quran of those nations who had knowledge but did not act upon it and those that acted without knowledge.


Our slogan: Inspiring positive change.
This has 3 important elements:
Inspiring: Inspiring through knowledge, through awareness of the prophet’s vision, through conversation and engagement.

Positive: The type of inspiration will be positive. It will only lead to good things, positive things, positive for everyone – Muslim or non-Muslim.

Change: Change has different facets to it: change in personal lives; in communal settings. Change is a progression since positive precedes it. We aim for change and progression in the areas of knowledge, awareness, activism, piety, etc.

  Our Logo: The intertwined symbols of knowledge and action
In our logo, the two arabic words for knowledge and action–’ilm and ‘amal –come together and intertwine. In the arabic language, similarity in letters shows the relationship between different words. These two words, in arabic, are comprised of the same three letters ayn, laam and meem just with a slight change in order from one to the other. ‘ilm–knowledge– is spelt  ’ayn , laam , meem and ‘amal–action–is spelt ‘ayn, meem, laam.

Our logo, therefore, is the symbolic representation of our purpose: bringing together knowledge and action to create positive change.

I have yet to buy the tickets (yeah... I know) because I need to see the schedule for classes, discussions, tests and what not. But InsyaAllah, praying hard that Allah allows me to attend this event which will be on the 24th and 25th December 2011.
