Get to know Yaqeen

The Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research is dedicated to the publication of original content, on relevant Islamic topics, that is academic, authentic, and accessible.

Invest in the truth.

We don’t charge for any of the resources we produce—because we believe authentic content should be available to everyone. But on the other side of the aisle is a fully-funded billion-dollar industry committed to spreading misinformation about our faith. Help us sustain our operations so we can continue to reclaim our narrative and uphold the truth for Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
