Imam Taha Hassane has been the Imam of the Islamic Center of San Diego since 2004. He often uses his Friday sermons to convey the message of the dignity and the sacredness of life, and urges Muslims to reach out to people of other faiths. He is very involved with the youth in San Diego, and prior to that, as a high school teacher and Imam in his native Algeria for 10 years before coming to the United States. Imam Taha graduated from the Institute of Islamic Sciences at the University of Algiers. He is married and has been blessed with three daughters. Imam Taha has been described by many as one of the more friendly and hospitable people they have come across. InFocus had the great pleasure of sitting down with Imam Taha recently for a candid discussion on his role and the Muslim community’s role, among other topics. |
