Testimonials

"Moving away from home to a new, secular environment like college is a huge adjustment, and can stunt an individual's spiritual growth. To
continue staying steadfast upon this Deen, one requires constant guidance and a way to remain grounded. After talking with Shaykh Usama
1-on-1, I was able to relay my struggles and gain insight and advice from someone who has not only experienced these trials before, but from one who was qualified to provide authentic Islamic instruction."

"Masha Allah, Shaykh Usama's online platform is an excellent forum for us all to have our religious questions answered. His willingness and ability to share his extensive knowledge with the ummah via an online platform is a unique and effective resource for us all. I hope that more people will start taking advantage of this service, because an
imam who provides direct, personalized advice is preferable to relying on search engines and navigating the ocean of fatawa available online."
