About this Event

Wrap & Swap: A Sisters’ Evening of Ilm, Reflection, and Connection


Join us for a cozy evening of sisterhood, stories, and reflection.

Come wrap and swap your favorite books while reconnecting with the joy of reading and the beauty of seeking knowledge together.

We’ll begin the night by wrapping our books (all materials provided!) and adding a thoughtful note or quote for whoever receives it next.

Then, gather together in hopes of growing in heart and mind as we learn from Sister Ekraam on Seeking Ilm.

Finally, enjoy the highlight of the night: The Great Book Swap!


Each participant must bring at least one book to exchange. Whether it’s a story that moved you or a lesson that changed you, your book might inspire another sister’s journey.

What’s Included:
Tea & light food
Wrapping materials
Book exchange & reflection circle
A warm, welcoming space to connect with like-minded sisters

Date: Friday, November 14
Time: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Location: Bridgeland Riverside Community Association
Tickets: $25 | Open to all sisters 16+

Hosted by Akram Jomaa Youth × Human Appeal × Calgary Islamic Book Club

Let’s read, reflect, and reconnect , together.
