MISSION STATEMENT AND GOAL
It is the goal of the United Muslim Martial Artist Association to unite the practitioners of all known Martial Arts under an
umbrella of “international brotherhood” and cooperation – recognizing the merits of all styles and schools as being equally
relevant and appreciated. Any and all Muslim Martial Artist will be welcomed and respected, providing they adhere to the
tenets of “La ilaha il Allah Muhammadar Rasulullah. (There’s no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger). We also
welcome any and all Grandmasters, Masters, Sensei, Shidoshis, Gurus, etc., to become members of this prestigious
community.
Furthermore, we seek to overcome the petty rivalries and jealousies that pervade so many similar societies and to relegate
competition to “sporting events”. No politics and no denigration of any Muslims or styles will be tolerated, and the Council will
aggressively defend any who are unjustly or unfairly treated within the community.
It is our sincere hope that we may establish a “Code of Ethics” for members that will be welcomed and subscribed to by martial
arts organizations, clubs and practitioners worldwide. We vow to uphold the five pillars of faith, the tenets of Islam, loyalty to
fellow martial artist and devotion to the martial arts. This tradition must be diligently upheld.
