The National Grassroots Campaign to Fight Terrorism
Introduction
This guide is part of the MPAC's broader counter-terrorism and civil rights campaign and is intended for Imams, Muslim community leaders, law enforcement, and the media. More information about MPAC and what we stand for can be found here. For Imams and Muslim leaders, we present to you our "Recommended Mosque Guidelines" for your review and implementation. MPAC seeks to build a relationship with you and is always interested in your feedback. Please contact us if you have any questions at (213) 383-3443. Or if you decide to implement the guidelines, please let us know.
For law enforcement, we provide our "Mosque Etiquette" and "Cultural Considerations" for interacting with the Muslim community. These guidelines were developed with the U.S. Department of Justice and other ethnic communities to educate federal, state, and local agencies about interaction with opposite gender, dress, and perception of law enforcement in general.
For the media, in addition to what you'll find for Imams, Muslim leaders, and law enforcement, we have reprinted a series of articles from "The Minaret" magazine that deals with the subject at hand. Media interviews can be arranged by contacting MPAC at (213) 383-3443. If you are a local news affiliate, contact us and we will attempt to put you in touch with a local Muslim community leader in your area that can speak from a local perspective.
