Al Rashid Mosque Endorses Premier Danielle Smith's Parental Rights Updates in Alberta

We firmly believe in the importance of parents playing a central and meaningful role in shaping the lives and futures of their children in accordance with our deeply held religious beliefs. Premier Smith proposed policy updates regarding parental rights resonate deeply with our community.

We recognize that these updates will afford parents the necessary guardianship and authority to continue nurturing their children in accordance with their values and beliefs. This fundamental aspect of parenting is cherished by every loving parent and is vital for the well-being and flourishing of our families and communities.

Therefore, on behalf of the Al Rashid Mosque and our extended community, we support the Premier parental rights legislation. We wholeheartedly appreciate our government's commitment to respecting the rights and values of families and people of faith in our province, including Muslims.
