      ANAHEIM — Mustafa Umar, an imam in Southern California, is popular with the Muslim teenagers who attend his mosque. They pepper him with questions about sensitive topics like marijuana use, dating and pornography.

      Umar, 31, is a serious Islamic scholar who has studied the Quran in the Middle East, Europe and India — but he’s also a native Californian, who is well-versed in social media and pop culture, and can connect with teens on their own terms.

      That pedigree is rare — 85 percent of full-time, paid imams in the U.S. are foreign-born — but the demand for people like him is growing as American Muslim leaders look for ways to keep the religion relevant for young people in a secular country that cherishes freedom of expression.

      “That’s all you hear in every mosque around the country now: ‘We need someone who can connect with the youth.’ And everyone is waiting for that person, like he’s a superhero who can come and save the day,” said Umar, who started his job nine months ago.

      With a foot in both traditional Islam and U.S. pop culture, leaders like Umar are trying to help young Muslims embrace their American experience without letting go of Islamic traditions. It’s part of a broader trend toward a more American style of congregational worship that includes everything from vibrant youth groups to health clinics to community service projects.

      “The demand for American-born imams is an articulation of something much deeper,” said Timur Yuskaev, director of the Islamic chaplaincy program at Hartford Seminary in Connecticut, which educates Islamic faith leaders.

      “It’s a realization that assimilation is happening and it’s going to happen. Now, how do we control it, how do we channel it?” he said. “These congregations, if they do not provide the services that the congregants expect, then they will not survive.”

      For Umar, part of the strategy means

      While teaching the students at Qalam Institute Seminary during our tazkiyyah class, we came across an incredible perspective by Imam Al Ghazali. In his Ihya, he writes about the rights of sisters and brothers on one another (حقوق الأخوة والصحبة), listing things like financial and material assistance, hiding ones’ faults, appreciating and praising one another, etc.

      The section that we read through last week was on pardoning and being light with mistakes when your brother or sister is engaged in wrongdoing. He highlights how the goal of community is to uplift one another, and mentions specifically that isolating someone due to a sin that they commit will not soften their hearts to return, rather forgiving, loving, and encouraging one another is a much more logical approach.

      Then he said something amazing:

      وهذا لأن التفريق بين الأحباب من محاب الشيطان كما أن مقارفة العصيان من محابه؛ فإذا حصل للشيطان أحد غرضيه فلا ينبغي أن يضاف إليه الثاني

      “And this is because causing separation between loved ones is of the most beloved things to Shaytan - just like getting someone to commit sins is also from the things he loves. So, if Shaytan is able to attain one of his goals [in getting someone to com
