We are delighted to invite you to a special evening with Sidi Atif Khan, Founder of Ethica Institute, as he presents The Financial Awakening—a timely and practical discussion on ribā (usury), Islamic finance, and navigating today’s financial world with clarity and conviction

Over the past several months, Sidi Atif has completed an extensive 40-city North American tour, delivering this presentation to communities across the continent. With every lecture, discussion, and audience question, the material has been refined and strengthened, making this the most comprehensive and impactful version of the presentation yet.

Along the way, he has been invited to speak at major masājid and institutions, including the Chicago Seminary, and has appeared as a guest on Dr. Shadi Masri’s Safina Society podcast on two separate occasions, where these important topics were explored in depth.

Now, he brings the distilled insights from that journey to our Zāwiyah in a presentation that is both spiritually grounding and immediately practical.

What you’ll learn

– Why ribā is among the gravest prohibitions in Islam.

– The hidden ways interest affects our daily lives.

– Practical strategies for navigating mortgages, loans, investing, retirement, and modern finance.

– Common misconceptions about Islamic finance.

– Actionable steps toward financial decisions that align with your faith.

Location: The Zāwiyah (also broadcast live to our communities worldwide)

Time: Thursday July 9th, Immediately after Hizb al-Bahr to Maghrib (~5:30pm Jordan time)
