Hikmah Institute was founded in 2014 to help masjids give traditionally marginalized segments of the ummah a sense of belonging, community and ownership of the masjid.  Hikmah is pioneering a new model to work within existing masjid space, while maintaining its own organizational independence.

Hikmah Institute aims to provide:

Relevant Islamic Knowledge: Hikmah’s programs will begin with traditional Islamic knowledge and apply it to address the challenges of modern American life.  Hikmah’s programs endeavor to prepare attendees to live Islam and be a transformative force for positive change in our communities.

Community: The path to God is a lifelong struggle, and few people can navigate the journey alone.  Every Hikmah program seeks to foster brotherhood/sisterhood so attendees can surround themselves with good company and gain support in the path to God.

Hikmah is an autonomous organization that uses existing Islamic centers as a bases of operations. Hikmah’s operations will be independent of the Islamic centers with the intention of complementing the masjids’ existing programming.
