For more than ten years, Rabata has dedicated itself to positive cultural change, uplifting Muslim women online and in-person to step into their whole selves, ready to teach, serve, and lead in their communities. On the anniversary of ten years of nonprofit incorporation, we reflect on the people and places that helped shape Rabata along the way. Look inside to reflect on the past, imagine the future ahead, and to appreciate the deep impact of creating positive cultural change around the world.
Just as Khadija’s (ra) streams of sadaqa sustained a movement and led to oceans of baraka, the monthly donors of Rabata sustain our work. Along with the blessing of sadaqa jariya (ongoing charity), members receive additional perks and benefits.
