At Zakat Chicago, we are deeply honored to walk alongside those who have embraced Islam, guiding them with care and compassion. Welcoming new Muslims is not just a responsibility—it’s a heartfelt journey of understanding and encouragement, helping them build confidence and clarity as they grow in faith.
Your generous support empowers us to spread the message of Islam throughout Chicagoland. Through your donations, Zakat Chicago partners with mosques and organizations to distribute Qurans, provide educational resources, and offer essential tools that ease the transition for new believers.
Our partner centers go beyond material support—they deliver personalized counseling, answer pressing questions, and provide ongoing guidance to help new Muslims integrate Islamic teachings into their daily lives with confidence and peace.
The importance of welcoming and guiding new Muslims is beautifully reflected in the Quran
وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ قَوْلًۭا مِّمَّن دَعَآ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَعَمِلَ صَـٰلِحًۭا وَقَالَ إِنَّنِى مِنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ
“And who is better in speech than one who invites to Allah, does righteousness, and says, ‘Indeed, I am of the Muslims.’ (Surah Fussilat, 41:33)
