Sheikh Omar Suleiman Lecture
In light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, Sh.

He highlights lessons we can learn from that time period and offers some spiritual gems that are relevant to us today.
Sh. Omar Suleiman is the Founder of Yaqeen Institute (https://yaqeeninstitute.org), a nonprofit research institute that works to provide free and accessible content as a resource to those who seek it. They aim to address relevant topics head-on with the help of the foremost experts in this space.
