Mission Statement and Methodology

Mawlana Faizani International is made up of a community of people of various nationalities with shared vision, purpose, and values. The mission of the foundation is to serve the spiritual needs of Muslims and non-Muslims through spiritual Islamic practices and teachings based on the methodological system of 'Knowing Oneself - Knowing God.' The foundation carries the message of universal love, self-discipline, mutual respect and understanding at the individual and societal level. The foundation will endeavor to facilitate peaceful and synergistic solutions to those who aspire to better our world in support of human dignity and stature, and work toward fostering a service-oriented community that empowers people to live a life of greater purpose, understanding, virtue, and joy conducive to the benefit of one and all!

Philosophy, Message of Peace, Hope and Tolerance

• Religion must not be used as a form of dictatorship. To do so violates the free spirit of religion in which an individual strives for a private relationship with God in the hopes of personal salvation.
  
  
• Individuals and societies should not give in to those without direction (materially and spiritually) and who do not advance the concepts of tolerance, wisdom, universal love for mankind and global peace.
  
  
• Religious majorities everywhere must be tolerant towards religious minorities. Politicians and nationalists cannot misuse religion and the power it has over people to simply advance their political, ethnic, or nationalistic agendas.
  
  
• Spiritual teachings should only be spread and taught through convincing arguments that address the audience's intellect and encourage people to ponder on the marvels of God's creation resulting in complete certainty of faith. Such faith is based upon immense love for the Creator and must result in the servicing of God's creatures for His happiness.
  
  
• When coupled with the philosophy of Knowing Oneself - Knowing God, religion (i.e., spirituality) becomes the solution to all our individual and societal sufferings; it empowers individuals to change from the inside-out and thus creates astute, value-driven, cooperative and synergetic individuals who genuinely want outcomes to be a real win for all.
  
  
• It's not sensible for one to talk about world peace, until he/she first becomes a peaceful person. Hence, the teachings of Knowing-Oneself - Knowing God, with their penetrating insight, are fully organized with the help of Great God and are accessible to those interested in finding true and everlasting peace in their hearts and by extension, to the entire world.
  
  
• The issues facing humanity today are global in nature and transcend the barriers of race, color, language, geography, social, political, and religious ideology. Humanity as a whole has never before been challenged by the enormity and the complexity of issues that the modern era poses. Therefore, we must all work tirelessly to spread the knowledge and the philosophy of Knowing Oneself in hopes of bridging the gap between civilizations by focusing on our humanity and common spiritual needs.
  
  
• With great urgency, faithful and enlightened people ought to unite and work with other true humanistic people and focus their energies in controlling the violent fire of the Ego and egotism which has spread (almost) all over the world, causing all social and individual discomforts. Mankind must wake up and stop it with the help of Almighty God, especially in these critical times, before humanity is forever plunged into annihilation. God Forbid!
  
  
• The ultimate purpose of Islam is to bring people to God, in their very spirits. This nearness to God is the only true antidote for the ailing spirit of mankind, for an end to evil and destruction, and for an end to the futile contest between nations. If man can find unity in God, then at the very least they will be able to find unity with each other. There is no higher or more profound cure for Mankind then the Presence of God in his/her daily life.
