  1. AA,I could not resist this Urdu couplet from our great Philosopher Poet Dr. Iqbal.Nasheeman per Nasheeman es tarah tameer karta ja ke bijli girtay girtay aap khud be zaar ho jaye. (also bezaar)the essence of this couplet, not the translation, is as follows;Keep on doing good things to a point where the strikes to destroy you get tired and feeble.

  2. Keep on doing good things to a point wherethe strikes to destroy you get tired and feeble.The only way to beat a bad idea is to come up with a good idea. Good always wins, truth ultimately triumphs. God has created the Kayanat to be in Meezan. The Shams and Qamar are on a perfect trajectory for millions of years, because they were not given a brain, however, humans were given the capacity to create their own balance and their own path, and God stripped the humans from the trajectory. However, he has given us a manual to follow. Negative energies may upset the balance and the balance can be regained only thru good energy. Do enough good things to pale the evil propagation against Muslims, because that is the only way to bring the balance back.

  3. A Muslim Model;Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) taught us strive to create better communities… he was the first model Citizen and earned the title of AL-AMIN – the truthful, trustworthy, the caring and the peace maker from Non-Muslims at that time. We have to become the Amin’s for the world, let’s take that first step and be known as the one’s who participate and contribute towards the peace, security and prosperity of our Nation, whichever nations that might be.

  4. Allah Offers hope and presents opportunities:This is a good opportunity for Muslims to become part of the society so we can proudly thump our chest and say; this is my nation, this is my country and I will continue to do things to make my nation a better place, a safe place, a secure place for me and for every American. Your exuberance and confidence will make you the Al-Amin.This is a serious proposal to Muslims in every City… I am willing to put in the time for it… I can help you with the event in your city. Can you afford 5 hours a week for the next 4 weeks?Mike Ghouse (214) 325-1916

  8. Our mission is to encourage individuals to develop an open mind and an open heart toward their follow beings. If we can learn to accept and respect the God given uniqueness of each one of the 7 billion of us, then conflicts fade and solutions emerge.  We believe that knowledge leads to understanding and understanding to acceptance and appreciation of a different point of view.

  9. OUR MISSION Our Mission is to work for a world of co-existence through inclusiveness and participation. As a member of diverse family of faiths, our efforts will be directed towards justice and equity to attain peace for the humankind with a firm grounding in commonly held values. We cannot have advantages at the cost of others. Such benefits are temporary and deleterious to lasting peace. We believe what is good for Muslims has got to be good for the world, and vice versa, to sustain it. Indeed we aspire to promote goodwill amongst people of different affiliations, regardless of their faith, gender, race, nationality, culture or any other uniqueness blessed by the creator. Our Mission is driven by the Qur'an, Al-Hujurat, Surah 49:13: "O mankind! We have created you male and female, and’ve made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another. The noblest of you, in sight of Allah, is the best in conduct. God Knows and is Aware."
