Fostering Resilience in the Muslim Community

Dr. Farhan Abdul Azeez just returned from Gaza—again. He went during Ramadan, prayed Eid with children in new clothes, and hours later saw their bodies in the morgue. He stood beside men who were martyred moments after smiling with him.

In this conversation with Dr. Omar Suleiman, he shares what he witnessed, what the world must know, and what it truly means to love the ummah—to walk through rubble, taste the sweetness of faith, and keep returning to serve, even if it might be the last time. Why do doctors beg to go back to this nightmare? Why do the people of Gaza still smile, pray, and celebrate Eid in tents beside destroyed masjids? And what does it say about us—that they feel abandoned not by their enemies, but by their brothers?
