Muslim Parliament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Muslim Parliament is a Muslim organization founded in 1992 in London by Dr. Kalim Siddiqui, Director of the Muslim Institute, based on a proposal published in July 1989 under the title The Muslim Manifesto. The Muslim Parliament consists mainly of appointees, including women and young people, and works through specialist committees. Its proposals have attracted public attention and some have been copied by other Muslim groups. Following Kalim Siddiqui's passing in 1996, the Muslim Parliament's leadership passed to Dr Siddiqui's right-hand man, Dr Ghayasuddin Siddiqui (no relation).[1] The work of the Muslim Parliament can be viewed on www.muslimparliament.org.uk.
