Education

The aim of AMBA’s education committee is two-fold. One, it seeks to empower and equip our community members with knowledge about their legal rights in the United States, as citizens entitled to equal treatment under the law. Two, it seeks to provide education related to Islamic jurisprudence about personal matters such as marriage contracts, divorce, estates, wills, etc. The work of the committee is conducted by:

  • Hosting CLE-accredited panel sessions on U.S. Law, as well as educational sessions on Islamic law to help self-educate the Muslim American community.

  • Responding to national legal crises which intersect Islamic and U.S. Law, with a myriad of scholars coming together to explore legal problem-solving.

  • Building a database of Know Your Rights materials to benefit the community.
