Our Vision

The purpose of AIM is to consolidate the efforts of progressive Muslims and progressive Muslim organizations from around the world in order to counter radical, intolerant and supremacist attitudes and behaviors in Muslim communities.

Our Mission

AIM seeks to challenge theological justifications for hate and supremacism with the progressive values that we feel to be inherent in Islam, namely:

Human Rights and Dignity for All

Recognizing each individual’s equal worth in society and right to equal protection under the law.

Freedom of Expression

Advocating for freedom of expression and freedom of dissent. No one should be legally prosecuted, imprisoned or detained for declaring or promoting unpopular opinions whether political, artistic, social or religious, even when said expression may be offensive or afore-mentioned dissent may be considered blasphemous.

Freedom of/from Religion

To uphold the Qur’anic mandate “let there be no compulsion in religion” (Q:2:256), that freedom of conscience is not only essential to all human societies, but integral to the Qur’anic view of humanity.
