In light of our traditions, we want to establish a reliable source for Turks and Muslims living in the United States of America by using the necessary tools and platforms required of our times.
Our Vision:
- To create work that makes a difference without being distracted by false agendas created by mainstream media.
- To contribute to living as conscious Muslims in non-Muslim lands.
- To prepare informative articles on practical Islamic matters under the guidance of accurate and reliable sources, especially for those living in non-Muslim countries.
- To create a platform for sharing experiences gained abroad in professional fields, current affairs, child education, etc.
- To keep communication alive between those living in the homeland and abroad.
