What happens when your college education nourishes both your mind and your soul?
In this clip, 2026 graduating senior Abdel reflects on his four years at Zaytuna College, America's first accredited Muslim liberal arts college, and what it truly meant to be surrounded by likeminded peers and scholars who pushed him to think deeper, ask harder questions, and grow closer to God in the process.
From studying the great texts of the Western and Islamic traditions to building a community rooted in shared values and sincere pursuit of knowledge, his journey is a testament to what education looks like when it doesn't separate the intellectual from the spiritual.
