Strong environments, led by strong people

Young Muslims across the West are losing their faith because they feel alone, unseen, and disconnected. Criterion Group exists to change that — one trained leader at a time.

The Problem

When doubt hits, who is there?

When temptation surrounds them, who stands beside them? For too many young Muslims, the answer is no one. Mosques are stretched thin, families don't always have the tools, and online content pulls in every direction.

Criterion Group was founded in March 2025 to close that gap — by investing directly in the people already doing this work on the ground.

Our Approach

Brotherhood, guidance, and safe spaces

We don't run top-down programs. We fund and train local youth da'wah leaders — the ones already trusted in their communities — and give them the structure, funding, and network to go further.
