Protecting the American Islamic College Property: Preserving Our Legacy, Ensuring Our Future

Bismillah hir Rahmanir Raheem

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Introduction:
We, the concerned members of the masjid and the broader Muslim community, join together with a shared mission to safeguard the property of the American Islamic College (AIC) from being sold. As we embark on this crucial endeavor, we seek clarity, transparency, and the preservation of the Islamic identity of this significant institution.

Mission:
Our mission is to protect the American Islamic College (AIC) and its masjid property from being sold, ensuring the preservation of its Islamic identity and preventing the loss of a cherished institution within our community. We aim to advocate for transparency, clarity, and fairness in the sale process, and to prioritize the interests of the Muslim community and the founders who have contributed to the establishment and renovation of this property.

Aims and Objectives:

1. Halt the Sale of the AIC Property: We strive to put an immediate stop to the sale of the AIC property and prevent its potential loss to realtors or entities that may not prioritize its Islamic character and significance.
2. Demand Transparency and Clarity: We demand transparency in the decision-making process regarding the sale of the property. We seek clear and public disclosure of the valuation of the land, details about offers for sale, and the terms and conditions of the sale. It is crucial that the Muslim community and stakeholders are fully informed and involved in this process.
3. Preserve the Islamic Identity: We firmly believe that it is in the best interest of the Muslim community and the legacy of the founders and contributors to the AIC to preserve its Islamic identity. We advocate for the sale of the property to a Muslim organization that can ensure its continued use as a place of worship, education, and community engagement.
4. Uphold Justice and Honor Contributions: Selling the AIC property in a secretive manner without public awareness or input would be a disservice to those who have dedicated their time, resources, and efforts to its establishment and renovation. We seek justice by preventing the property from losing its Islamic identity, thus honoring the contributions made by the founders and all those involved.

Agenda:

1. Raise Awareness: We aim to raise awareness among the Muslim community, as well as the wider public, about the urgency and significance of protecting the AIC property from sale. Through community gatherings, social media campaigns, and outreach programs, we will disseminate information and rally support for our cause. We aim to gather widespread support from the Muslim community and beyond, urging them to join our cause and sign the petition to stop the sale of the AIC property. The petition can be accessed at the following link: https://chng.it/RmXRQSq2
2. Mobilize Support: We will actively engage with influential organizations, leaders, and community members to garner support for our mission. This includes reaching out to Islamic organizations, advocacy groups, community leaders, and influential individuals who can lend their voices and resources to our efforts.
3. Advocate for Transparency: We will advocate for transparency throughout the sale process by demanding public disclosure of the property valuation, offers received, and the terms and conditions of the sale. We will seek the involvement of relevant stakeholders to ensure that the best interests of the Muslim community are upheld.
4. Engage Legal Support: If necessary, we will seek legal support to safeguard the rights and interests of the Muslim community in relation to the AIC property. This includes exploring avenues for legal action, if warranted, to protect our religious and community assets.
5. Collaborate with Like-Minded Organizations: We will actively seek collaborations with other organizations and individuals who share our vision and are committed to preserving the Islamic character of the AIC property. By joining forces, we can amplify our efforts and increase our impact.

Conclusion:
With Bismillah as our foundation, we embark on this journey to protect the American Islamic College property from being sold. We remain steadfast in our commitment to transparency, the preservation of the Islamic identity of the institution, and honoring the founders and contributors who have paved the way for us. Together, united in purpose, we can make a difference and safeguard the future of the American Islamic College.

May Allah (SWT) guide our efforts, grant us success, and keep us steadfast in our pursuit.
