Description

The only Yahoo! group by the American Indian / Native Americans / First Nations Muslims of Turtle Island, about them and for them.

This is your oppurtunity to meet with and network with the Muslim natives of Turtle Island... to learn about them... to assist them in their da'wah efforts, which is virtually non-existant... until now, inshaa Allaah, and to really be one united ummah where the Messenger of Allaah (Peace be upon him) said, "The example of the Believer in their mutual love and mercy is like the example of a body, if one part of the body feels pain, then all the body suffers in sleeplessness and fever." (Bukhari Muslim)

Native Americans are marginalized in their own homeland and it is a shame that Muslims come to this country and share in the benefits from it's native peoples being occupied and oppressed, and the Muslims find no way to help the American Indian / Native American / First Nation in their situations or to even make the da'wah to them to Islam? Do you think Allaah want ask us about that... a duty we must fulfill?

This is your chance inshaa Allaah for the native Muslims to come together and work together upon birr and taqwaa, and for the non-native Muslims to learn about us, and assist us upon birr and taqwaa, inshaa Allaah.

If you come here to impose your steriotypes upon us or to "play Indian", don't even bother.

This is what we are about inshaa Allaah ta 'ala (click the link below):
