MISSION STATEMENT: Ta’leef provides the space, content, and companionship necessary for a healthy understanding, embrace and realization of Islam.

Ta’leef Collective began as Zaytuna Institute’s Outreach program in 2002 and was born into an independent organization in 2005 per the request of Zaytuna’s leadership. Ta’leef Collective provides the space, content and companionship necessary for a healthy understanding, embrace and realization of Islam. Ta’leef Collective primarily serves seekers actively interested in Islam and converts to the faith, assisting them in realizing a sustainable conversion to and practice of Islam, and a healthy, gradual integration into our greater Muslim community. Ta’leef Collective also strives to reengage the growing number of disenfranchised and often marginalized Muslim young adults.

Because we recognize the import of these groups, and the intersection between them, Ta’leef Collective offers a model tailored specifically for them. By providing alternative social and sacred space, culturally relevant programming and positive companionship, we assist our beneficiaries in holistically practicing Islam in a way that is reconcilable with their social context. We are a collective of teachers, volunteers, and peers who understand firsthand the challenge of living as Muslims in the west and we strive to provide the necessary means to facilitate that reality. Sh Hamza, Ta'leef Collective, Fremont, USA Eid/Sep 21 09 by enthogenesis.
