Welcome
Muslim Wholehearted
Initiative
Reminder of the Week
OUR MISSION
The Muslim Wholehearted Initiative is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides affordable, Islamic-focused mental health counseling and rehabilitation services. We also host virtual and in-person community events, workshops, and seminars, all centered around a singular purpose: living Islam wholeheartedly.
As Allah says: ‘O you who believe! Enter into Islam Wholeheartedly and do not follow the footsteps of Shaitaan, for he is to you an open enemy.’ {2:208}
This verse deeply inspires our mission, as we strive to embody and encourage living Islam wholeheartedly in all aspects of life.

🔥 The fire touched you.![]()
Maybe it came through betrayal.![]()
Maybe through grief.![]()
Maybe through disappointment.![]()
Maybe through a relationship that changed you.![]()
Maybe through a dream that never unfolded the way you hoped.![]()
The fire touched you.![]()
And while you did not choose what happened to you, you still have a choice in what happens next.![]()
Will the pain harden you?![]()
Or will it deepen you?![]()
Will it make you bitter?![]()
Or will it refine you?![]()
As Muslim women, we are often taught to either suppress our emotions or become consumed by them.![]()
But there is another path.![]()
A path that honors our pain without allowing it to define us.![]()
A path that makes room for grief, anger, disappointment, and heartbreak while still returning our affairs to Allah.![]()
This July, join me for a deeply transformative experience as we explore what it means to heal without losing our dignity, our softness, our accountability, or our faith.![]()

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajee’oon.![]()
Our beloved Brother Musa has returned to Allah.![]()
For decades, his bookstore As-Suq, located in downtown Brooklyn, was a staple in our community. As a Black American Muslim pioneer, Brother Musa helped build and nurture a space where so many of us came seeking books, knowledge, guidance, and connection. For many, it was more than a bookstore—it was a place that helped cultivate faith, learning, and community for generations.![]()
This loss feels especially close to our family. My mother had the honor of delivering many of Brother Musa’s children as their midwife. And subhanAllah, many of the books I inherited from my mother’s personal collection were purchased from As-Suq.![]()
It is a reminder of how deeply intertwined our community has been for decades.![]()
May Allah reward Brother Musa abundantly for the family he raised, the knowledge he helped spread, and the countless lives touched through As-Suq. May all of it be a sadaqah jariyah for him.![]()
May Allah forgive him, expand his grave, fill it with light, elevate his rank, and grant him Jannatul Firdaus.![]()
May Allah grant patience and ease to his family and all who loved him.![]()
Janazah details will be announced by his family soon, inshaAllah.![]()
