Muslim leaders in North and South America have agreed to establish an independent body that would bring together different sects to implement the Makkah Charter, a turning point in contemporary Islamic thought.
Mohammed Al-Issa, secretary-general of the Muslim World League (MWL) and chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars, launched the first forum of Muslim leaders in the Americas, during an event in Washington, which was also attended by prominent supporting partners, including members and advisors in the US Congress, and an elite of non-Muslim religious, community and governmental leaders.
