About Us
Our guiding principles are based on the Qur'an, the Sunnah of the Prophet and the consensus of recognized Muslim scholars, such as the founders of the four schools of jurisprudence: Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Malik, Imam Ash-Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad.
Our creed follows the path of "Ahl as-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah", shared by hundreds of millions of Muslims around the world.
We follow the path of moderation and balance, both in belief and in practice. We consider extremism and excess in matters of religion to be a great danger, causing serious harm to society as a whole.
