Yaser Birjas – Crisis of Marriage in America

About this lecture

In this comprehensive lecture, Sheikh Yaser Birjas examines the crisis of marriage facing Muslim communities in America, identifying the key obstacles that prevent young Muslims from getting married and maintaining healthy relationships. He organises the discussion into three major areas — conventional views on love and marriage, gender dynamics, and cultural challenges — drawing on real statistics from his marriage seminars and counselling experience. The lecture concludes with practical, Quran-based solutions for individuals and communities, along with an engaging Q&A session covering topics from financial readiness and past sins to interracial marriages and women proposing.
