About Us
Our Story & legacy
Carrying the Remains, Lighting the Path.
The history of Islam in America is a narrative of profound faith, disciplined devotion, and unyielding struggle for parity. Our pioneers sacrificed immensely to realize and express a faith tradition that provides moral balance and courage. As champions of their legacy and pallbearers of their remains, we bear a collective obligation to continue their great work.
The Womb That Produced Us
The Womb That Produced Us: Community Life Forward was conceived by some of our community’s most dynamic thinkers and organizers. It stands on the shoulders of giants who encouraged and supported this work-pioneers who cannot be thanked enough. We pray to honor them by implementing the guidance that balances and elevates our community life.
Our American Islam
We promote an inclusive, complete way of life-universal, not tribal. So American, it cannot be conflated. We are here to shape the authentic expression of Islam in America through credible messengers, ensuring our faith is a dynamic force for good works and moral courage.
