"Carrying on the torch lit by El-Hajj Malik Shabazz (Malcolm X) and past homegrown Islamic movements such as the Darul Islam movement and the Islamic Party of North America, As-Sabiqun aspires to:
*make Islam a living force by challenging and breaking the grasp of social and political forces seeking *to suppress and destroy the Deen.
*obliterate the hold of jahiliyyah through moral and spiritual development.
*establish Islamic homes and build model communities where Islam is lived.
*work toward total economic independence.
*stand up against those who oppress Muslims and all other human beings across the globe as well as the earth and Allah's creation itself." Home Page, As-Sabiqun, accessed August 20, 2007.
