In a time when the world is engulfed in injustice, oppression, and uncertainty, the strength and clarity of true faith become more vital than ever. The ongoing massacres in Gaza lay bare the brutal reality of global inaction and complicity. Despite the immense suffering of Palestinians, many world powers—including those who claim to uphold human rights—remain passive, complicit, or even actively supportive of the violence through political and military means. The silence and failure of international institutions reflect a dangerous double standard, where political interests are prioritized over moral responsibility.
Meanwhile, in the United States, the resurgence of oppressive, Trump-era policies threatens the rights and freedoms of Muslims and other marginalized communities. Islamophobic rhetoric is being normalized once again, with potential expansions of surveillance, suppression of pro-Palestinian voices, and restrictions on campus activism and protest. From anti-BDS legislation to widespread censorship, Muslims and their allies are under growing pressure for simply standing on the side of justice.
The Annual MAS Convention is the largest and most diverse Islamic convention in North America. The convention takes place in Chicago, Illinois every December during the winter holiday season. By the grace of Allah and the unique effort of over 300 volunteers, the number of attendees has successfully grown from 1,500 in 2001 to over 45,000 in 2024.
The Muslim American Society (MAS) is a dynamic, religious, and educational organization that offer unique programs and services.
We offer a variety of programs for every age group. Multiple sessions to choose from on a wide range of topics that correlate to the theme.
