Memories of Dr. Fakhri
Memories of Dr. Fakhri
from Br. Abdul Malik Mujahid
Those of you who knew him might say he was embodiment of gentleness and love. Sharafat o matanat ka putla. If someone asks me about an example of South Asian Muslim culture in Chicago, I would point out to him without hesitation.
He was one of the pillars of the Chicago Muslim community. He was the founding president of MCC (Muslim Community Center, Chicago) the mother mosque of the immigrant Muslim community. He was among the earliest educators as Chair of ISNA education committee. Professionally he served as chair of Dept of Education at the Chicago State University. He was currently chair of IQRA International Educational Foundation.
