MCWS (Muslim Community of Western Suburbs) is a non-profit organization, located in the western suburbs of Detroit, Michigan.
ABOUT US
The Muslim Community of the Western Suburbs is dedicated to creating and promoting a community of peace and caring where it and its members grow closer to God and through that closeness become positive contributors to their families and the community around them. As such MCWS lauds and welcomes acts of community service, neighborliness, and positive civic participation. Conversely MCWS stands against acts of violence, oppression, abuse and discrimination whether committed by those external to the Muslim community or from within. We pray for a world where peace and harmony prevails and the poor, oppressed, and abused are relieved of their challenges.
HISTORY
The MCWS was founded in 1977 as a group of young Muslims living in this area realized that as their toddlers grew older, they had to seriously think about their identity and place as American Muslims in the giant melting pot of the USA. These parents were concerned as they saw the troubling situation of many Muslim families in the area who had lost their Islamic values and identity due to lack of knowledge and practice of their deen. This was a future that these Muslim parents wished to avoid.
