“A light has now come to you from God, and a Scripture making things clear, with which God guides to the ways of peace those who follow what pleases Him, bringing them from darknesses out into light, by His will, and guiding them to a straight path” Quran 5:15-16
At Embrace Islam, we provide tailored support, education and community for converts and anyone seeking Islam in Scotland.
We offer a non-judgemental space where people of any background; Muslim or not, can explore and enhance their understanding of Islam.
Our mission is to ensure every person discovering Islam has access to support and community so they can foster a healthy relationship with Islam and thrive in their faith journey.
Talk to someone qualified to take the testification of faith (shahada) in English or Arabic.
Whether you are a convert, discovering Islam for the first time as a raised Muslim or just curious about Islam, we have a welcoming space for all.
Supporting your journey to and through Islam, so you have confidence and clarity with your faith
“Islam is a crystal clear river, because it is pure and clear, taking on the colour of the bedrock it flows over. So a Chinese Muslim will have Chinese Islam” – Dr Umar Faruq Abdullah
At Embrace Islam, we offer holistic, personalised and structured support to help those embracing Islam on their journey. We understand that this transition can sometimes feel isolating, and we are committed to fostering a sense of belonging, community and integration.
Our non-judgemental space is also open for non-Muslims curious about the faith and raised Muslims rediscovering their faith.
