Founding Member Recounts the Early History of Islamic Mission Japan
Islamic Mission Japan has published a short retrospective on its founding, centered on the building where the organisation's activities first began. The piece features Hafez Muhammad Alauddin, a founding member and former central president of the organisation, recalling the early days of its work.
Alauddin has long been recognized as a leading organizer within Japan's expatriate Muslim community, having devoted himself to the religious, social, and community development of Muslims living in Japan since the organisation's earliest years. His account offers newer members and supporters a glimpse into the modest beginnings from which Islamic Mission Japan, founded in 1989, grew into the nationwide network of chapters it maintains today.
The organisation continues to mark such milestones as part of its ongoing effort to document its history for the community it serves.
