Our Core Values

The Islamic value system draws its legitimacy from two universal realities: tawhid and ‘adl, or Allah’s unity, uniqueness, and attribute of fairness. For our convenience, we have selected six major values as the basis of our policies and practices. These are complemented by equally important behaviors prescribed by the Qur’an and the Sunnah for a socially responsible society and organization.
