Islamicity Foundation company information, Employees & Contact Information

We are four individuals acting in our private capacity as concerned global citizens of the one planet we all share. Our founding member is a PhD economist (Hossein Askari), another member is a finance specialist (Hossein Mohammadkhan), a third is a PhD in Islamic Economics/Finance (Liza Mydin), and a fourth is a web specialist (Mostafa Omidi). We have felt, and continue to feel that Islam, the religion, was hijacked soon after Prophet Mohammad’s death. Rulers twisted the religion as an instrument to control the masses for their own selfish ends. Pliant and opportunistic clerics supported their benefactors through their false interpretation of the message of Islam. This practice has continued throughout history to the point where today we see clerics, rulers, politicians, terrorists of all shades, institutions, organizations and individuals espousing a religion that bears very little resemblance to the teachings of the Holy Qur’an and its interpretation by the Prophet Mohammad. In most Muslim countries, Muslims have little say about the governance of their country; they enjoy little freedom; and they are prohibited from examining, discussing and discovering their religion from the Qur’an. Rulers and clerics have placed themselves as the only legitimate interpreters of Islam and routinely dismiss questions from Muslims as ill-informed and not worthy of discussion. Such a disconnect between the teachings of the Qur’an and its practice has emboldened radicals, opportunists and terrorists to fill the void and to preach a version of Islam that has perverted the religion, divided humanity, pitted Muslim against Muslim, Muslims against Christians, Muslims against Jews and is destroying the fellowship of humankind that is at the core of all religions of the Book.
