About Dawat-e-Islami USA

Dawat-e-Islami (Pakistan) is a globally recognized, non-political Islamic organization committed to spreading the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah across the world. It was founded on September 2, 1981, in Karachi, Pakistan, by the esteemed Islamic scholar Shaykh-e-Tariqat, Ameer of Ahl-us-Sunnah, Sheikh Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri Razavi Ziyae (may his exalted blessings continue).

Sheikh Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri - the driving force behind Dawat-e-Islami - is revered as a spiritual leader and scholar of the highest order. He founded Dawat-e-Islami with the guiding principle: "I must strive to reform myself and the people of the entire world." His vision was deeply rooted in spiritual purification, promoting unity, and elevating the moral and religious standards of Muslims globally. Through his leadership, Dawat-e-Islami has grown exponentially, inspiring millions to follow the teachings of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (May Peace and Blessings be upon him & his household).

Today, Dawat-e-Islami is making a profound impact by uniting communities through compassion, Islamic knowledge, and spiritual enlightenment. The organization's activities encompass religious education, spiritual development, and fostering a sense of community.

In the United States, Dawat-e-Islami corporations are organized in several states. Each corporation is legally separate and operates with its own financial control, decision-making authority, and administrative autonomy. While all corporations adhere to the same core principles of Sufi Sunni Islam, they maintain their independence in financial and operational matters.

Under these corporations' banner, numerous Masajid and Islamic centers are operating across the United States, providing a variety of religious services and educational programs. These centers offer:

  • Daily Congregational Prayers

  • Quranic Tafseer (Explanation) Sessions

  • Adult Quran Reading Classes

  • Weekly Gatherings for Families

  • Holy Night Gatherings

  • Short Courses and Workshops

  • Summer School Programs and much more.

In addition to these services, Dawat-e-Islami operates Jamia-tul-Madinah Seminary branches for advanced Islamic studies, Madrasa-tul-Madinah for Quran memorization (Hifz) and recitation (Nazirah), Faizan Weekend Islamic Schools (Sunday Schools), and Dar-ul-Madinah Elementary Schools to ensure the Islamic upbringing of children.

Each corporation operates autonomously in its day-to-day affairs. However, since September 2, 2007, when guidance on religious matters is required, they may coordinate with Dawat-e-Islami Pakistan or with one another to ensure alignment with the teachings of Sheikh Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri (may his exalted blessings continue).

Dawat-e-Islami USA remains dedicated to fostering unity, spreading Islamic knowledge, and uplifting the spiritual well-being of American Muslims.
