Aisha Carter is an aspiring artist and entrepreneur who is also the founder of her People of the Garden. People of the Garden was created from a love of beauty as an act of devotion. Rooted in faith, community, and the quiet poetry of nature, our work explores how flowers can become vessels for remembrance, reflection, and gathering. We believe that tending to beauty—especially during sacred seasons—is a way of tending to the soul.
Create with intention. Gather in beauty. Grow together. 🌿
Come join us for Halaqa Followed by Activities and Snacks!
Night Time. Ramadan Vibe.
Unlock the full potential of your Ramadan by moving beyond the “light-switch” approach and embracing a season of intentional, soulful transformation.
This session explores the higher purpose (maqaasid) of fasting—developing Taqwa, a profound God-consciousness that acts as a “rein” for the soul and a shield against life’s distractions. You will learn how to “irrigate” your spiritual crops early by following the wisdom of the early generations, transitioning from the mere “husk” of physical hunger to the “soul” of true patience and piety.
We will provide you with a holistic readiness plan to help you:
Don’t just “go through” the motions this year—prepare your heart and mind now to harvest the ultimate rewards of mercy and forgiveness.

Join us for a 3-week Series on The Pull of Islam with Ustadh Shad Imam and Dr. Kia Jahed
Islam experienced one of the most prolific and rapid expansions of any religions. It overcame barriers of geography, ethnicity, gender, and culture. Even today, it remains the fasted growing religion in the world. But what was secret to this spread in history? And how do those elements still allow it succeed in the modern world, 1,400 years after the first Muslims converted?
Find out the answers to these questions and more as we explore the history of Islam’s spread, the personal stories of those who first encountered Islam as non-Muslims, and role Islam still plays in influencing the world.
Join us for the latest in our interactive weekly series for young working professionals ages 21+ on contemporary issues through spiritual lens.
Featuring a talk and discussion, doors open at 7:45 for coffee and connection with the event beginning after Isha at 8:15 after Isha prayer and takes place in Qahwa Cafe. It is highly encouraged to buy a ticket if able to help us estimate audience size. Donations are always graciously appreciated to help fund future events and we look forward to your attendance!
