Yaqeen Institute
We’re a nonprofit on a mission to pioneer Islamic research in creative, cutting-edge formats tailored to meet people where they are. Our purpose is to move people to a realization of Islam that inspires faith, grounds it with intellect, and creates a world of doers who are tranquil, confident, and purpose-driven.
Every day, we work to...
Dismantle doubts: In an increasingly skeptical world rife with confusion and Islamophobia, we give a home to well-researched truths.
Nurture conviction: Our content instills those truths in heart and mind, strengthening belief by rooting it in foundational knowledge, heart-softeners, and practical spiritual guidance.
Inspire contribution: Our vision is to inspire a world of faithful changemakers by reviving the essence of orthodoxy.
