The Islamic Tijaniya Foundation of America (ITFA) is a non-profit organization 501 (c) (3) created to improve the faith and life of the Muslim African Diaspora and address their challenges. Headquartered in Washington DC, ITFA has 32 Hadara groups across the USA gathering Muslims and specially Tijanis into a network providing religious, social and economic support. ITFA guide Muslims in the Sunna of the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) and promote an Islam of peace. ITFA members promote spiritual enrichment and interfaith dialogue.
Islamic Community Center Project
As a Diaspora, we face many challenges: being integrated in the community, remaining connected with our religion, transmitting our religious heritage to our children, avoiding the pitfalls of impoverishment in a foreign country and the attendant consequences.
We face these challenges by taking ITFA’s work to the next level. To that end, we need a multi-purpose center that will house ITFA. This will help the organization have greater visibility, expand its work and have a greater impact in the community.
 ITFA has therefore embarked on a special initiative to mobilize resources to build and operate a multi-purpose Islamic Community Center in the Washington DC area. The center will be used to promote Islam as an all-inclusive religion that teaches peace, love and harmony and serve the purpose of:
♦  worship place  where Muslims can gather to perform their religious duties;
♦  research and conference center  to promote a peaceful Islam;
♦  cultural exchange forum  where leaders meet to share their experience and reflect on today’s society;
♦  education center  to teach the Qu’ran and instill tolerance, family values, and inclusion.Â
 This project is modest, realistic, and achievable.Â
How long will it takes us to realize this project? This will depend on our effectiveness as a charitable group willing to empower its community through better live.
 Contribute to our goal! May Allah (SWT) Bless you.  Â
