Support Newcomers Like Uncle Harry on Their Journey ❤️

The first time I heard Malcolm X speak, it made such a big impression on me that I made my mind up there and then, whatever he is or whatever he has got, Im going to have that one day. - Uncle Harrys Journey to Islam

- Uncle Harrys Journey to Islam

Listen to the journey of our beloved Uncle Harry and why the work of Taleef is an essential lifeline to so many Newcomers like him embracing the faith in our communities.

On our  journey to God, we often travel and make an effort to seek out beautiful people and upon his visit to Taleef, Uncle Harry found people that resonated with his soul and made him feel very comfortable. 

Taleef was the first place that made him feel that he belonged here and he was able to converse and share his story with people from all walks of life. To Uncle Harry, Taleef is a safe place for new people and I like being around good people. I enjoy that.

Our goal is to have 1000 Hearts, so please give $3 a day ($90/month recurring) to serve Newcomers like Uncle Harry and others within the peripheries of this tradition. 

The Prophet said: "When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him." (Muslim, Al-Tirmidhi, others)

May we all inherit this Prophetic character of having concern and care for the Ummah and be able to have the means to serve the underserved, wherever they may be in society. Ameen. 

Peace and blessings,

Ta'leef Team

Join us in serving The 1000 Hearts Campaign in an effort to gather 1000 Hearts together in support of Ta'leefs work. 1000 supporters coming together forming one beating heart that helps keep this work alive. 

By giving $3 a day($90/month recurring) we would meet our annual budget of $1M across both campuses and more. 1000 Hearts Campaign came from an effort to highlight the individuals that we take care of at Ta'leef. Your support will help the seeker, the newcomer, and last but certainly not least, the youth.

We need your support to keep the vision going and the doors open. So we can continue lending a heart to those that need our support the most! Help us reach our Year-End Goal of $150K.

NEW EPISODE RELEASE, Gaza Points To God.

In this thought-provoking episode from The Welcome Home Podcast, Dr. Ali Dia, Dr. Will Caldwell, and Mike Swies discuss Dr. Wills recent article on the impact of the genocide in Gaza and the resulting increase in Shahadas. They explore how witnessing unwavering faith amid profound adversity speaks to the human spirit more powerfully than any formal class on Islam. What can this teach us about connecting with hearts in dawah?

Join the conversation on the future of inviting the West to Islam and the enduring strength and faith of the Palestinian people.

Stream it today on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Anchor, Breaker, Pocket Casts, and Radio Public. 

We are blessed to announce our 4th Annual Umrah trip to the sacred sanctuaries of Medina and Mecca from December 27th to January 4th led by our experienced teachers and staff.

Bringing the individuals we serve full circle from Shahada(testimony of faith) to Mushahada/Mushahida(witnessing God) has been a dream. Visiting Medina and Mecca has been an aspiration of ours for over a decade. We have made prayers for this opportunity and the doors have opened to finally provide our community with this memorable opportunity.

We hope to continue this blessed tradition in the coming years, with the permission of God. We look forward to having you join us. 

Seats are limited for this intimate trip. For any questions, email us at [email protected].
