“ The beauty of Islamic teachings in a
non-Muslim country”
My trip to Canada that co-organized by IIT and IIUM, is a trip that I will remember forever. A
journey with other University mates, and all the volunteers, members and directors of IIT is a
journey beneficial to my friends and I.
Firstly, through this trip, it enables me to learn about Canadian culture, especially, the culture of
Muslim community in Canada. Canadians especially Muslim, consist of many races and cultures,
historically because most of the Muslim people emigrate from their countries, for instance
Pakistan, India and Guyana. Even though there are many different races; in perspective of
mazhab and culture, the people, seem to be adapted well together. Canadian Muslim community
showed me how beauty of Islam is, by helping each other, even though they come from different
backgrounds.
Secondly, what I learnt from this trip, is how to develop a true muslim family. Staying with
muslim family is one of the advantages of this trip, that enables me to learn deeper of how
muslim families in Canada work and operate. The family that I stayed with, showed me that, the
family members doesn’t need to be strict about the appearance. Muslim boy can still can wear
jeans, and not wearing Islamic cap (kopiah), but still show how beauty of Islam is. I learnt that, it
is more important to have internal values, compare to external values. Internal values like, the
pure simple understanding of Islam, seriously mesmerize and broaden my view about how
beauty Islam is.
Thirdly, what I learnt from this trip is, how beauty and workable, the relations between muslim
and non-muslim in Canada. From the explanation of the scholars I met, they mutually agreed
that, it is proper and good to have mutual connection with non-muslim, even though Jews as a
dakwah. This beauty of relations impressed me, how can in non-muslim countries, the muslim
can live peacefully, having good relations with other religious community, how government
respect and entertain all the difference among citizens, and how free and beauty is the Islamic
practice, can be done, in Canada .
I sincerely hope that, I can be back in Canada, in future insyallah.
