THE RISALA FOUNDATION
Bringing Houston to Life
If you’re looking for high quality Muslim scholarship in Houston, you’ve come to the right place. The Risala Foundation is dedicated to bringing the most relevant voices in the realm of American-Muslim interactions to Houston.
Our speakers cover the broad spectrum of the Muslim faith, giving insight into the arts, education and civic issues faced by American- Muslims. We focus on issues of Muslim identity, integration and scholarship, attempting to pave the way for an enlightened American- Muslim presence in the United States. We encourage a thoughtful, civil and broad approach to understanding Islam in the context of our present reality. We feel that the right question is just as important as the right answer.
We are a volunteer-run organization that aims to bring our Mosques to life - by bringing to Houston a message that enlivens and elevates our discourse.
Risala Foundation has been located in Houston since 2008. We are a "big tent" Muslim organization - regardless of where you are on the path, you are welcome.
