New to Islam?

Welcome. This page walks you gently through the essentials — with a real person to lean on.

Take it one step at a time

  1. Understand belief: One God, final Prophet, Qur'an preserved.
  2. Take the Shahada when your heart is settled — with witnesses, if possible.
  3. Learn Salah: the five daily prayers, with a mentor.
  4. Find community: a local mosque and an MPD chapter near you.
  5. Grow at your own pace: read, ask questions, keep going.
Get a mentor

You're not alone

MPD pairs new Muslims with a trained mentor — a real professional in your city — who can answer questions, help you learn Salah, and connect you to community.
