  • Islamic Society of Augusta’s 50th Anniversary

    The Islamic Society of Augusta has been serving the Muslim community and the CSRA since 1976.

    The Islamic Society of Augusta (ISA) is commemorating its 50th Anniversary throughout the year 2026.

    For centuries, Muslims have been an integral part of the CSRA (Central Savannah River Area), significantly contributing to its cultural fabric and community spirit. Their enduring presence and meaningful contributions have shaped the region. Building upon this rich history, a dedicated group of Muslims took action in the spring of 1976, establishing the Islamic Society of Augusta. Today, this organization proudly serves and supports hundreds of individuals, continuing the legacy of inclusivity and service within the Muslim community and to the CSRA.

    ISA honors our esteemed founders, our dedicated long-term contributors, and the Muslim individuals who have made substantial and noteworthy contributions to the broader CSRA community, and to the public at large, throughout the years. Contributions benefiting the general public have encompassed a wide array of fields, including, but not limited to, major scientific research, medical professionals, business ventures, education at all levels from public elementary schools through senior university professors, community service projects, first responders, military service, political engagement, and other impactful areas.

    As part of our 50th Anniversary celebration, members representing many of these nationalities and ethnicities will host cultural displays and culinary exhibits featuring traditional foods, customs, and traditions from their respective cultures. Guests will have an opportunity to experience the many cultures represented within our Muslim Community and to celebrate the diversity that our community brings together.

  • Discover Islam at ISA Session 3: The Children of Israel in the Qur’an and their life in Muslim lands
    7:00 pm Thursday, January 25, 2024
    at Augusta’s First Islamic Center
    3416 Middleton Dr.,
    Martinez, GA 30907 

    The Children of Israel are the children, and later descendants of Prophet Jacob (Isra’el). There are several verses in the Quran that inform us about the trials that Jacob and his descendants endured. The Qur’an also covers the story of Jacob’s grandfather Prophet Abraham and several prophets from his progeny.

    Jews endured trials in the Christian lands, but they enjoyed safety and prosperity in the Muslim lands. This changed after the start of the Zionist movement, and the creation of the state Israel.

    Children of Israel, Judaism, Zionism, and the state of Israel; how they are related and what makes them different.
