Goodness still on the rise at 2011 Muslim Convention
September 4th · 1 Comment · Imam W. Deen Mohammed, Islam
“…the best thing that came out of it is a sincere, conscious effort to understand Muslims better.” While our mass media shamefully stereotype Muslims as Arabs, kudos to South Town Star reporter Steve Metsch for his perceptive “10 years after 9/11?” question during yesterday’s news conference, here in Chicago, at the 2011 edition of the [...]

Lifetime of faith leads to Islam (LifePoints)
June 17th · No Comments · Imam W. Deen Mohammed
We sat under the wonderful teaching of Imam W.D. Muhammad, and came into Islam with knowledge based only on Quran and Sunnah, unaffected by centuries of cultural strife and sectarianism.
