Islam, often misunderstood and misrepresented, is a religion that advocates peace, compassion, and respect for all members of humanity. While acts of violence committed by individuals who claim to be Muslim have unfortunately tainted the perception of Islam around the world, it is crucial to recognize that these actions are not reflective of the core teachings of the religion. Islam is not a religion of violence and harm and highlight its true essence as a faith that promotes health peace, justice, and the well-being of all. Lets hope for a day for the world to see peace and love everyday in every aspect of life like what Mohammad the prophet stablished on his time, the truth of Islam.
The Misconception of Violence
It is essential to differentiate between the actions of individuals and the teachings of a religion. Islam, like many other faiths, condemns violence and harm to innocent lives. The Quran, the holy book of Islam, emphasizes the sanctity of human life and explicitly forbids the killing of innocents. Acts of terrorism and violence perpetrated by individuals claiming to act in the name of Islam are unequivocally condemned by mainstream Muslim scholars and communities.
The True Essence of Islam
At its core, Islam is a religion that promotes peace, justice, and compassion. The word “Islam” itself is derived from the Arabic root word “Salaam,” which means peace. The Prophet Muhammad, considered the final messenger in Islam, was sent as a mercy to the world. His teachings emphasized kindness, generosity, and the importance of treating others with respect and dignity.
Islam places great emphasis on the well-being of the community and advocates for the establishment of a just and equitable society. Acts of violence, especially against women and children, are not only condemned but are in direct violation of Islamic principles. Islam encourages the protection of vulnerable members of society and the promotion of social justice.
Respect for Women and Children
Contrary to stereotypes, Islam places a high value on the rights and dignity of women and children. The Prophet Muhammad himself set an example by championing the rights of women in a society that had previously marginalized them. Islam recognizes the importance of nurturing and protecting children, emphasizing their right to care, education, and a safe environment.
Acts of violence, especially against women and children, are not only inconsistent with Islamic teachings but are vehemently condemned. Islam promotes family values, compassion, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute positively to their communities.
Islam and Global Peace
Islam envisions a world where individuals coexist in peace and harmony, irrespective of their religious or cultural backgrounds. The Quran encourages Muslims to engage in dialogue and cooperation with people of other faiths for the greater good of humanity. Acts of terrorism and violence not only contradict Islamic principles but also hinder the realization of a peaceful and just global community.
Islam is not a religion of violence and harm. Any individual who harms others, especially women and children, does not represent the true teachings of Islam. The religion advocates for peace, compassion, and the well-being of all members of society. It is crucial to approach Islam with an open mind and recognize that the actions of a few individuals do not define an entire faith. By fostering understanding and promoting dialogue, we can build bridges of peace and work towards a world where people of diverse backgrounds can coexist in harmony.
As a vibrant Muslim community, we come together regularly online or locally for the essential act of prayer, fostering a strong sense of spiritual connection and community bonds. Our congregational prayers, such as the five daily prayers (Salah), Friday prayers (Jumu’ah), and special prayers during the blessed nights of the last ten days of Ramadan, serve as focal points for communal worship. In these gatherings, we engage in heartfelt supplications, seek guidance from the Quran, and join together in the remembrance of Allah.
To further enhance our community engagement, we extend a warm invitation to join our email list, where you can stay updated on our upcoming online meetings and local events. Our online meetings provide an opportunity for members to connect virtually, share experiences, and participate in discussions on various aspects of faith, community, and social issues. Additionally, we organize local events that bring our community members together in person, fostering a sense of unity and camaraderie.
By joining our email list, you’ll receive regular updates on prayer timings, community announcements, and invitations to participate in activities that contribute to both personal and collective growth. We believe in creating a supportive and inclusive community that extends beyond the prayer mat, where individuals can actively participate in the shared journey of faith and community building. We welcome you to join us in our efforts to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood, both online and at local events, as we continue to grow together in faith and unity.
As the months of Rajab, Shaban, and Ramadan approach, Muslims around the world eagerly anticipate the arrival of these sacred and spiritually significant periods. Rajab marks the beginning of a season of increased devotion, self-reflection, and preparation for the holiest month in the Islamic calendar – Ramadan. It is a time for believers to engage in heightened acts of worship, seeking Allah’s forgiveness and blessings. Shaban follows, providing an opportunity for further spiritual preparation and reflection, as Muslims gear up for the imminent arrival of Ramadan. The approach of these months serves as a gentle reminder for Muslims to evaluate their lives, strengthen their connection with Allah, and cultivate a mindset of gratitude and humility.
As the blessed month of Ramadan draws near, Muslims worldwide embark on a journey of self-discipline, prayer, and increased acts of charity. Ramadan is a time of fasting from dawn to sunset, fostering empathy for the less fortunate and reinforcing self-control. Beyond abstaining from food and drink, Muslims are encouraged to engage in increased acts of worship, such as reading the Quran, performing nightly Tarawih prayers, and seeking personal growth. It is a month of reflection, self-improvement, and a heightened sense of community. As the crescent moon signals the beginning of these sacred months, Muslims are reminded to approach this time with anticipation, sincerity, and a commitment to making the most of the spiritual opportunities that lie ahead.

Celebration on the Eid –e-Mab’as“, the celebration of divine appointment of the Holy prophet of Islam
«اِقْرَاْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّک الَّذی خَلَقَ * خَلَقَ الْاِنسانَ مِنْ عَلَقَ * اِقْرَا وَ رَبُّک الْاَکرَمُ * اَلَّذی عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ…».
Muhammad Mustafa (PBUH) was appointed to prophecy in the cave of Hira, in 27th Rajab of year 40 of A’m Al Fill, which is coinciding 13 years before the Hijra, , by Gabriel on behalf of God and was ordered to remove idol worshiping and polytheism globally and promote theism and deliver the message of revelation to the people.
As we always do, we held a ceremony this year as well both a virtual one and in person. We celebrated the miracle and remind ourselves of the great blessings we have. The program included recitation of the Quran and doa, speech by M. Babaee. The program was on a Zoom Meeting too as all of our activities recently have been held virtual because some members cant be here in person for health or other concerns.
Please get on our email list and be informed about our gatherings in person or virtual. Info @ muslims-us.org
