Khalid Yasin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shaykh Khalid Yasin, a former Christian, is the Executive Director of the Islamic Teaching Institute (ITI); a premier organization dedicated to the work of Da'wah. He has studied the Arabic language in Madinah, Saudi Arabia and Cairo, Egypt and has had many mentors and teachers who tutored him in Fiqh us-Sunnah, Fiqh us-Seerah, Islamic history and the memorisation and recitation of the Qur'an.

In the past ten years, the ITI has converted more than 5000 persons to Islam and an additional 1700 since the September 11 Attacks. Shaykh Khalid Yasin delivered a lecture in Saudi Arabia in 1994 titled "The Purpose of Life", which resulted in 43 persons accepting Islam on that very night.

Khalid Yasin constantly tours the world delivering lectures aimed at removing distortions about Islam and Muslims, conducting Da'wah Training Courses, and providing new Muslims with a specially designed Islamic Training Program.

Khalid Yasin is committed to raising the consciousness of the Muslims to fulfil the responsibility of Da'wah and the establishment of Islamic revival. REf-Islamic messenger-©Ally Ekbal 2006
