  • Our Signature Initiatives

Through our signature community initiatives, we are committed to the wellbeing of the people we serve.

We are leaders in profound community engagement and empowerment.

Sacred Knowledge

Through our seminars, courses, publications, lectures, tours, and classes we aim to revive the tradition of learning and teaching in Islam; where a teacher represents the spring of knowledge and righteousness, the continuation of the glorious past, and the embodiment of the blessing and light of an unbroken chain of transmission.

Circles of Remembrance

Our regular dhikr (remembrance) circles promote a sense of calmness and inner peace for those that attend; providing a space to foster mindfulness and social bonds, whilst strengthening one's connection with God. Regular participation in dhikr also facilitates spiritual development and a deepened faith.

Health & Well-being

Our faith consulting, counselling, and peer support services play a key role in helping people with mental health, marriage, or social issues. We provide a professional safe and judgment-free environment for individuals to express their feelings and thoughts, where individuals can explore their concerns, learn coping strategies, and work toward personal growth and recovery.

Youth Development

Our youth club provides a safe and trusted meeting space for children and young people, helping to protect them from negative influences such as juvenile nuisance, anti-social behaviour, crime, as well as drug and alcohol misuse. Young people participate in a wide range of recreational activities, including gaming, sport, adventure, educational workshops, and challenges.

Sports

Harnessing the power of sport as a unifying force, we are committed to helping adults and children reach their full capabilities, and creating further equal playing fields for everyone.

Publishing

We have led and supported the effort to revive the vast and rich Islamic scholarly tradition through publications. Our press department has delivered relevant and digestible avenues of spreading sacred knowledge through books, research papers, articles, and blogs.

Conferences & Expos

Our large scale events aim to connect and inspire a plethora of demographics from like-minded individuals, families looking for engaging activities for children, or a non-Muslims curious about Islamic culture. We champion the diversity and richness of the Muslim world through cultural festivals, charity events, community gatherings, and spiritual retreats.

Study Abroad Experiences

We have a vast network to help and support seekers of knowledge to study abroad. Students are able to immerse themselves into another culture, develop independence, and boost confidence, study at the feet of some of the foremost scholars of our generation.
