In Science, International Day to Combat Islamophobia, which is an event recognizing that there are many incidences globally of discrimination and violence towards Muslims, seeks to highlight the true, peaceful, and inclusive nature of Islam to build awareness and appreciation of the Islamic tradition.
There are many ways you can observe this day. Here are a few ideas:
- Learn some history. Muslims have faced violence and discrimination for decades. Educating yourself on these injustices will help you understand the magnitude of issues they face.

However you choose to observe this day, doing so can help you support a more peaceful world, practice your compassion, and build your own spiritual wellness.
