Who are we?
We are part of YM; a national Muslim youth group which strives to create a safe space for all of us girls to share our thoughts, feelings, and experiences and receive support needed to live as a dedicated Muslim.
We achieve this by having weekly informational halaqas where we discuss current issues in an Islamic context. We are all learning, so all kinds of ideas are welcome. That’s not all though, somedays we forgo discussion and play cards, trivia or go out for a fun day!
YM Sisters is a national organization that seeks to address real-life problems and give the support needed to live our lives as dedicated Muslim youth. At this age where temptations are on the rise and flagrant behavior encouraged, YM Sisters attempts to counteract these influences by challenging the youth to take the best of all paths in both this world and in the Hereafter.
Organizations like YM are filling a very necessary void. YM stresses the importance of understanding, and fulfilling our individual and collective obligations as Muslims.
“It is better to sit alone than in company with the bad; and it is better still to sit with the good than alone. It is better to speak to a seeker of knowledge than to remain silent; but silence is better than idle words.”
YM Sisters is at the forefront of active work and engages young Muslim sisters in order to develop them into committed and conscious Muslims who will help make this world a better place. Help support the cause by heading over to our Support Us page!
YM teaches necessary skills through various opportunities for leadership, helping girls become more well-rounded and productive members of society. Want in on the fun and reward? Join or start a YM NeighborNet near you!

YM is a great way to be connected to your community. Many of us live in a world where we’re always being told to make the world a better place but we rarely look at ourselves and the direction our steps are taking us. YM can be the place where you can remember what makes you. A place to remember Allah and follow the right path and make who you want to be in the future.
Find your purpose, find your passion, and be the person you want to be!
