The future of America largely depends on the future of Islam in America. In our 25th year, ALIM continues to build Muslims who are fully grounded in the tradition, while critically engaging the current cultural context. Support our $50K campaign this Ramadan and help fund the tuition of 25 quality students! Donations are zakat-eligible and tax deductible. ALIM is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization (EIN 38-3633579)
The American Learning Institute for Muslims promotes the empowered, healthy, and religiously sound development of American Muslim individuals, families, and society through the promotion of “Islamic literacy”; which is the establishment and critical engagement of the requisite intellectual and spiritual foundations of Islam. ALIM is committed to facilitating dialogue between the textual and historical traditions of Islam and the sociopolitical, cultural, and intellectual realities informing the lives of American Muslims through relevant, engaging, and inspiring programming.

Educate the future leaders of our community by raising $50,000 to expand ALIM's goal of educating Muslims around the world with the requisite knowledge to be confident, grounded in tradition, and empowered critical thinkers that engage modern society in a meaningful way. Help provide scholarships and empower Muslims in America through knowledge.
Your generous gift provides opportunities to individuals such as Jannnah below (ALIMni '99 and ALIMni '16) who as ALIM Scholar in Resident Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans mentions, "Gets students through life at university stimulated, excited, captivated, fascinated by Islam so that whatever they decide to pursue (medicine, business, tech, law, politics,) Islam can inform their manner of proceeding."
You can support ALIM's community-leading students in the quest for Islamic Literacy by sponsoring their attendance at our 3-week Summer Intensive. Nearly 60% of our students request financial aid of some sort, so your gift is vital to their attendance in the program! Support ALIM's growth and increased programming with a generous donation.
Alhamdulilah, the American Learning Institute for Muslims (ALIM) was the recipient of the El-Hibri Foundation Religious Literacy Leadership Development and Education Award ($25,000) in 2021.
The El Hibri Foundation's 2022 Peace Awards Ceremony also awarded Dr. Sherman Jackson the El-Hibri Peace Price for $50,000.

Thank you from ALIM!
Our students have nearly completed the 24th annual ALIM Summer Program! We want to thank you for your generous support in funding the scholarships for 20 worthy students eager to learn their deen. Thanks to your generous donations, ALIM was able to give $35,000 in scholarships this summer, alhamdulilah.
It’s been an honor seeing our students grow, build bonds and engage in our rigorous but rewarding curriculum, through courses like Seerah, Islam in America, Usul Al-Fiqh, Ulum Al-Quran, and more.
May Allah swt bless our students and purify their hearts as they continue their search for knowledge and may Allah protect our scholars and allow them in continuing to spread this knowledge.
May Allah swt reward you immensely for your support for ALIM!
JazakAllah Khair,
The ALIM Team
