▼   Muslim Student Association (MSA) 

The Muslim Student Association at the University of South Alabama is dedicated to giving an accurate representation of what Islam is. Our MSA members work together to organize fun events with the purpose of clearing up common misconceptions, and starting important conversations that show that Islam is a religion of peace, unity, understanding, and faith in God. We strongly believe that the only way to create understanding and acceptance between each other is through honest, open-minded conversations. In the past we have hosted large Eid dinners, panel discussions, fundraisers, and social events - and we are looking forward to doing so much more!
