Spiritual care is compassionate, Islamically informed guidance that helps individuals find meaning, resilience, and healing. It includes emotional, religious, and spiritual support provided by trained Muslim chaplains through conversation, reflection, prayer, and guidance rooted in Islamic tradition.
Is this therapy or counseling?
No. These sessions are not clinical therapy, medical treatment, or legal advice. They are pastoral conversations focused on spiritual well-being and meaning-making from within the Islamic tradition.

Bayan chaplains are trained through rigorous academic and pastoral formation, integrating Islamic scholarship, ethical leadership, and contemporary chaplaincy practice.
How can I access a session?
You may access sessions by becoming a monthly donor, making a one-time contribution, or contributing toward a series of spiritual care sessions as described on the registration form. Sessions may also be gifted to loved ones or donated to community members in need.
