The Muslim Sunrise

The Muslim Sunrise (formerly The Moslem Sunrise ) is a quarterly magazine published by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community from the United States. Founded in 1921 by Mufti Muhammad Sadiq in Detroit, Michigan, it is the earliest Muslim publication originating in the United States. It took its name from a saying of the Islamic prophet Muhammad to the effect that in the latter days "the sun shall rise from the west" and serves as a platform for Islamic and interfaith discussion. Its stated purpose is that it "seeks to open discussions on Islam and topics relating to religion in general. It highlights the role of Islam in an ever changing global society. It provides a platform for public opinion on contemporary issues and presenting their solutions from an Islamic perspective". "Prophecy Continuous: Aspects of Ahmadi Religious Thought and its Medieval Background" Oxford University Press, 2003 p 31 "...he [Mufti Muhammad Sadiq] settled in Highland Park, Michigan, and in July 1921 started a magazine called The Moslem Sunrise . In the following year the publication was transferred to Chicago, where a mosque was also established. The first volumes of the magazine dealt with topics usual in Ahmadi periodicals and reported Muhammad Ṣādiq's lecture tours, public debates, and other activities. It also regularly published lists of persons who embraced Ahmadi Islam. During the years 1921-1924, it reported the conversion of slightly more than one thousand persons."
