Ammar Abdulhamid of the Tharwa Foundation
Awareness, activism, empowerment, and education. These goals of the Tharwa Foundation are what direct its tireless efforts to develop and strengthen Muslim communities throughout the Mideast. The institution's Director, Ammar Abdulhamid, explains that one of the ultimate objectives is for individuals to make greater political strides, becoming more involved in their governments' futures, and to personally define what they expect from their fellow countrymen and themselves. This Maryland-based non-profit acts as the mechanism to help thousands of Muslims highlight cross-culture commonalities and set aside divergent ideologies. In operation since 2001, the Tharwa Foundation has outlined a number of exciting proposals, such as the Tharwa Institute for Leadership and Tharwa Radio & TV, to launch its business capabilities to the next level.

How to create Muslim leaders? Congratulations! How about you start by performing regular prayers in Mosques? I don't see how else could Muslims trust a heretic (or should we say apostate?) to provide them with such training? Could you clarify?

To my knowledge, I am not the only Muslim heretic out there, and I will be more than satisfied to play some inspirational and supporting role within the ranks of the few heretics that do indeed exist. The non-heretics have enough leaders already, too many in fact.
