Narrative Story

Muslim women historically have been a vital part of the foundation of Islamic scholarship, leadership, and community care. Today, Rabata provides a platform for the rising tide of Muslim women becoming scholars, community leaders, and positive cultural change agents. Through online classes, literature, and spiritual mentorship, women are finding HOPE once again. Muslim women are raising their voices and amplifying their power across six continents as they live in the shelter of one another and uplift ourselves and the next generation. Each woman brings with her a unique ability to be the needed change through education, tarbiyah, and community.
