Welcome to The Risala Institute

The mission of The Risala Institute is to provide either free or affordable high quality education and social services to underserved individuals and communities across ethnicities and age groups.

 

  

Risala Endowment Fund Initiative

Who We Are

The Risala Institute was founded to meet the needs of our modern-day society with the primary focus being on education and social services.  While many similar educational programs and social service programs may currently exist, many of  them are either unaffordable or inaccessible to the masses. Risala has come to change this phenomena. Risala offers these programs while striving to revive the Islamic Waqf (endowment) system, with the profits of businesses directly funding its programs. This system allows for programs to be of the highest quality yet affordable and accessible. 

 

The Risala Institute is located in a 3-story, 12,000 sq ft, facility in Stone Mountain, GA.
