Follow along with us this year, 2021-2022, as we celebrate 20 years of IslamInSpanish

Its been 20+ years since the unfortunate events of #911. On Friday September 1, 2021 we held a community discussion titled "Rebuilding: Effects of 9/11 Then & Now" at the IslamInSpanish Centro Islamico and LIVE on Youtube and Facebook. We took a look at how this major event in the history of America helped us realize the power of the Media and resulted in the birth of IslamInSpanish.

Featured Story of Impact

Welcome to Islam sister Sandra!

Sister Julisa first came to our center nearly 2 years ago after seeing the VICE documentary on us and during that same visit, accepted Islam. On November 14th we reopened the IslamInSpanish Dallas Outreach Center after 7 months of being closed due to the pandemic. On this date we also introduced the community to Julisa as our new team member for the Dallas Center. To make this landmark day even more memorable her mother accepted Islam! Allahu akbar! The greatest thing a child can do is gift Islam to their parent.

Julisa’s patience was rewarded through her mother accepting the gift of Islam after over a year and a half of teaching her little by little every day. Watch sister Julisa’s story here
