Our Programs
Islamic Multi-media production
The Hablamos Islam team uses creative imagery and a combination of text, audio, and graphics to produce educational material on various Islamic topics. Our projects include children's video production, graphic reminders, documentaries, and conference recordings.
CREATION AND PRODUCTION OF LITERATURE for children
One of our greatest focuses and achievements is to produce quality bilingual children's books that teach our children about Islamic principles and values in a fun, creative, and colorful way. All of our children's books with original themes, text, and pictures are an exclusive production of Hablamos Islam and the only books of their kind in the entire world.
Educational programs and activities for children
Hablamos Islam is not limited to producing educational resources for adults. In 2009, they started the project Hablamos Islam Niños or We Speak Islam Kids to help parents and educators teach children about Islam in a fun and engaging way in their own language. For this purpose, they created:
A puppet show called, "Hablamos Islam con Ahmed” or We Speak Islam with Ahmed, which teaches Islamic manners and other topics.
Programming for entertainment and educational purposes that includes learning the Quran, poems, nasheeds, or songs in Spanish.
We Speak Islam Kids has created a variety of articles, activities, and free eBooks available on our website, and videos available on our YouTube channel.
Literature Translations
For more than 15 years, Hablamos Islam has translated hundreds of articles, fatwas (Islamic verdicts), pamphlets, and books on Islamic topics from English to Spanish and vice versa, and from Arabic to Spanish. In order to make information about Islam more accessible to Spanish speakers, this service has been extended not only to our followers but also to various Islamic organizations in the United States and other countries.
Educational Conferences about Islam
Hablamos Islam offers talks and presentations about different Islamic topics to help the public learn and understand Muslims and their beliefs as well as provide public-speaking training to effectively communicate with Spanish speakers about Islam. The following are a few of our exclusive presentations:

We include an analysis of why many Latinos are embracing Islam today.
Our Journey to Islam. Converts to Islam go through various experiences during their personal journey and research.

This segment allows the audience to Learn from inspirational stories of unique spiritual journeys.

In this presentation, we learn about the importance of modesty and manners, and how it shapes people and communities. We present the fundamental Islamic manners and how those characteristics contribute to and improve our social and communal interactions and relationships.
Dawah to Latino Workshop. This workshop is a comprehensive and interactive one-day seminar that focuses on effective communication strategies to share the message of Islam with Spanish speakers. Learn to uncover important Islamic principles that are hidden in Latino history and culture that spark interest and build rapport with our fellow Latino/Hispanic neighbors and friends. The goal of this workshop is to learn how to share and educate others about basic Islamic principles that best resonate with the Latino identity.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) for Dawah (Islamic Propagation): Understanding and connecting with the emotions of others is essential to effectively share the message of Islam with others. Each person comes with their own story that leads to their current belief or worldview. Developing emotional intelligence skills can help you understand your emotions, increase social awareness, and better handle negative situations you may encounter when talking about Islam. In this course, we learn about the principles of emotional intelligence and its implication in the field of dawah (Islamic propagation). We learn to recognize and improve our emotional intelligence skills to support and improve ourselves and our social relationships. We learn to be more aware of our own emotions and learn prophetic and research-based techniques and methodologies to manage our emotions and strengthen empathy.
