Nationwide Khutbah Campaign
To Increase Vaccine Confidence
A unified Friday Sermon message in all masajid across Canada
Friday April 30 2021
1. COVID-19 EFFECT ON MUSLIMS
Data from the U.K., South Africa, USA, and even Canada, shows that ethno-racialized communities, which include many Muslims, have been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic.
2. VACCINE HESITANCY
Although vaccine rollouts have started, some Muslims are hesitant to take the vaccine due to misinformation or attention-grabbing headlines that have not allowed risks to be contextualized.
3. VACCINES ARE SAFE, EFFECTIVE & HALAL
Muslim healthcare professionals and Islamic scholars from North America and Europe have verified the ingredients and issued statements affirming their safety, effectiveness and permissibility.
4. MUSLIMS’ COLLECTIVE DUTY
We have a collective duty towards those who are vulnerable and to protect our community.
That’s the prophetic way.
5. LOCAL MUSLIM LEADERSHIP
There are many educational, advocacy, and social support services established by and for Canadian Muslims.
