With more than 50 chapters across the US, The Muslim American Society (MAS) is one of the key Muslim organizations in America.
Our mission is “to move people to strive for God consciousness liberty and justice and to convey Islam with utmost clarity”.
Our vision is a “virtuous and just American society”.
We aim to establish a role model Muslim community that is well integrated and positively contributing to our American society.
We believe that Islam is a movement for positive change: comprehensive, moderate, relevant, dynamic, and engaging; a way of life.
Our methodology focuses on strengthening the individual’ spirit and character, by engaging in systematic personal development (Tarbiya)..
Our key priorities include:
(1) youth development,
(2) establishing a more cooperative environment between diverse communities and organizations,
(3) establishing a stronger institutional presence for Muslims in America,
(4) training American Muslim religious leaders,
(5) educating everyone about Islam, and
(6) making America a better place for everyone.
Our programs include personal development & education (Tarbiya), political empowerment (MAS Freedom), Youth & Scouts, Interfaith (Outreach), serving America (Service Corp), and Religious education (Islamic American University).
America is at a cross roads – the first African-American president, first major government reform in a generation, re-defining its role and policy abroad, and more yet to come. Americans stand open and ready for new and innovative ideas. This is our opportunity as Muslims in America to make a difference. Please join us by volunteering, engaging, and donationg
