OUR MISSION

SageTree Foundation is dedicated to reviving the light and wisdom of the prophets and sages to help seekers in the modern world navigate the confusions and darknesses that have permeated all aspects of life. While the enemies of humanity are many, the light is one. The Light of God is the source of light for His Final Messenger, the prophets, sages, righteous, and ultimately the source of light for all those who travel their path today.

Our mission is to enlighten people on the timeless principles of healthy living in our modern age that will ultimately lead people to a truly goodly life in this world and the next. Our focus is distilling the wisdom of the sages of the past into principles for the modern soul to live a fulfilling life that leads to the service, worship, and love of God, and to prepare current and future generations for the challenges they will face today and tomorrow.

The challenges of our time are many and often times hidden. Believers today are weakened through the dilution of their faith and understanding of Islam, whether it be from external forces, reformist movements, corrupt philosophies, or attachments to this world. Our souls are carried in the world upon our physical bodies, and our modern day habits of unhealthy living have crippled us physically and spiritually. Many of us live lives sitting in front of a screen, hours at a time. We have been absorbed into a digital world of delusion, disconnecting us with our reality. Our families, the core foundation of our societies, are suffering as a result as well. All the while, economic oppression has taken hold globally through the grip of modern day central banks.

These are the enemies of our modern era, and it is incumbent on people today to be aware of these harms and equip themselves with the tools to remain steadfast in their journeying to Allah.

SageTree focuses on educating believers and communities about:

The Sacred Tradition: Islam, Iman, Ihsan

Back to Basics: Giving the Body Its Due

Reality Check: Disconnect to Reconnect

Sacred Trust: Family and Children

The Strong Believer: Economic Empowerment

Our goal is to connect with people on a local level, engaging them in person regarding their struggles and challenges, and working with them towards empowering our communities.

Our Story

 

SageTree Foundation is a culmination of our life’s long work and journey through these struggles. Through the blessings of our teachers, families, brothers and sisters in the path, and personal study and application, we wanted to share what we learned and benefited from with others. In the past, communities of believers may have had to take on physical struggles against enemies of man and society, but today the enemies of humanity are more subtle and pervasive. Our modern day struggle today is in helping believers understand the tools used to weaken the ummah, joining together with those who are willing to stand to the oppressions of the modern age, and equip individuals, families and communities with the tools they need to become spirituals realized in the Oneness of the Divine.

Join us in our struggle. Whether through joining the SageTree team, contributing through writing and educating communities, volunteering at local workshops, or supporting financially, the struggle against falsehood will remain till the end of time, and needs believers like you.

TESTIMONIALS

  • “The digital deception forum was a blessing and an eye-opener. These addictive gadgets have created sensual pre-occupation for humanity with no precedence in human history. Especially for the Muslim Ummah who's main purpose is to control nafsani urges, and develop sincerity and piety. The prevalence of these gadgets has made spiritual development next to impossible.”

    — Samad N.

  • “A proverbial older fish crossed two younger fishes traveling in the opposite direction and asked them “Hey fellas, how’s the water from where you came from?” The younger fish replied, “What’s water?”

    It’s important to understand the environment that you live in, and know the forces that are algorithmically shaping our lives. The SageTree Foundation team helped me identify and name such forces. Their presentation allowed me to better understand where I stand in this dizzying techno age to better navigate my life through it. They also imparted practical advice on how to dissociate from techno-dependency, inspiring me to take better control of my life.”
