Imams’ Conference Held in Houston

American Muslims have experience with most of the alphabet soup of Islamic organizations which grace the shores of this continent, from AMC to ICNA, from ISNA to Zakat Foundation. However, there may be an important one which has until now escaped notice.

The organization AMJA (Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America) has a list of scholars associated with it which stretches from Al-Azhar University to Virginia’s Open University, and back across the ocean to the professors at Saudi universities. Its website, amjaonline.com, provides fatawa on many issues and promises 24-hour access to scholars who can give legal opinions on the issues people face. 

AMJA focuses on providing fatwas to Americans, and believes it is able to provide culturally appropriate fatwas although many of their scholars are not American–because they have some American scholars and because of the technological ties that bind AMJA’s American scholars with those abroad.
