Salaam & Peace Y’all,I’m Usman, The Muslim Capitalist, here to help you discover the most powerful form of activism: Islamic Capitalism.As a Muslim Capitalist, I believe in building businesses that benefit people, strengthen communities, and create shared prosperity. We avoid harmful practices like interest, usury, gambling, and pornography because we have a conscience—rooted in faith & purpose. Unlike traditional capitalism, we're not about hoarding wealth, but circulating it to uplift society.🌍 Faith & EntrepreneurshipFrom NYC to Texas my journey began at 12, selling Bazooka Joe gum at 4x the cost. At 16, I launched my first venture-backed startup, Bytes Cyber Café, entering the world of business and innovation. Later, I built the first energy trading company in North Jersey, securing the largest condominium building in NY as my first client. Dropping out of high school taught me that unconventional paths lead to extraordinary success—if done with a plan & purpose.🌟 Pioneering A Muslim CollectiveIn a world where networks define power, Muslims remain fragmented across thousands of Mosques, businesses, and groups. And in war, a divided community is easily defeated.To address this, we are currently building Mecca Digital, the first faith-based technology platform and Islamic foundation empowering 2B Muslims globally. Mecca bridges gaps between Muslim entrepreneurs, organizations, and mosques—creating a digital town hall where Ai matches users by goals, skills, and interests. This platform transforms fragmentation into strength, empowering Muslims to connect, collaborate, and grow their professional networks with purpose, instantly.📚 Author of The Rise of a Nation: A Muslim CollectiveI’ve spent 15 years engaging with 10,000+ Muslims worldwide to write this book, offering a blueprint rooted in the prophetic path to profits, power, and progress. This roadmap invites us to unite, strategize, & rise as the world’s most influential community Insha-Allah. Together, we can facilitate the growth of our socioeconomic relevance & power.⚡️ Empowering the Next GenerationThrough the iSAY Foundation, I’ve worked to empower over 2500 South Asian youth in the U.S. My service also includes roles with the World Congress of Muslim Philanthropists, Global Donors Forum, and the Multi-Cultural Advisory Board of a global franchise group.🚀 Join Me in Building a Better FutureYou are the most valuable capital we have. Together, we can build a future rooted in faith, progress, and prosperity. Join The Muslim Collective & Lets #RiseTogether (Link In Bio)
