IslamLeicester was established early in 2006 and is a British organisation conceived by a group of professional Leicester Muslims.
The aims of IslamLeicester are:
- To engage and contribute to the community of Leicester representing the true face of Islam
- To invite Muslims back to the true teachings of Islam
- To invite and to educate non-Muslims about the true teachings of Islam
We hope to achieve these aims through various means including:
- Regular talks and lectures
- Organising seminars and public exhibitions
- Engagement with mainstream press through letters and articles on current affairs
- Co-ordinated works of charity to help those in want in society, through co-operation with established British charitable organisations and caring professions
IslamLeicester will work with other communities, professionals and multi-faith groups in contributing constructively to a better, more vibrant and tolerant Leicester community.
