Why now

A once-in-a-generation dawah moment

In the summer of 2026, the eyes of the world turn to North Texas. AT&T Stadium in Arlington will host nine FIFA World Cup matches, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors from every corner of the globe to the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex.

For ICNA Dallas and Why Islam, this is not just a tournament — it is the single greatest opportunity in our lifetime to introduce our neighbors and the nations to the true message of Islam.

"When the world comes to our city, will they leave knowing who Muslims really are?"

Our Strategy

How we reach the world

Three coordinated fronts that put the message of Islam everywhere the world will be looking.

01
Billboards

Billboards that ask the big question

Twelve high-traffic billboards across DFW highways pose simple, curiosity-sparking questions and point visitors to a friendly conversation — online and in person. Millions of impressions during the busiest weeks the city has ever seen.

02
Fan Zones

Dawah in every fan zone

Welcoming booths near AT&T Stadium and around Dallas watch-party districts — staffed by trained volunteers offering free Qurans, refreshments, gifts, and warm conversation to fans from every nation.

03
Bus Tour

The dawah bus tour

A boldly wrapped dawah bus rolls through fan districts and city landmarks for six marquee stops — a mobile hub for street interviews, free literature, and unforgettable face-to-face dawah on the move.

Frequently asked questions

Is my donation tax-deductible?

Yes. ICNA Dallas is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit (Tax-Exempt ID 27-1512525). 100% of your gift is tax-deductible and you'll receive a receipt.

Does the money I give stay local?
+

Every dollar raised through this campaign funds the Dallas–Fort Worth effort — billboards, fan-zone booths, the dawah bus tour, hospitality, and free Qurans distributed right here in North Texas.

How is this different from Why Islam's national campaign?
+

ICNA Dallas is partnering with Why Islam to run the on-the-ground operation in our host city. Why Islam brings the proven framework and materials; we bring the local volunteers, relationships, and boots on the ground.

I want to help but can't donate. What else can I do?
+

We need 500 volunteers and dozens of hospitality hosts. Sign up to staff a booth, join the bus crew, translate, film interviews, host a guest, or sponsor a meal — every role matters.

When does the campaign run?
+

Activity ramps up in spring 2026 and peaks during the World Cup matches at AT&T Stadium in June and July 2026, including the Arlington semifinal.

Is dawah at a sporting event appropriate?
+

Our approach is warm, respectful, and conversation-first — offering a gift, a smile, and an honest answer to anyone curious. We're simply being good neighbors to the world arriving at our doorstep.

"If Allah guides a person through you, it is better for you than all that is on this earth."

The world is watching.
Will they see Islam?

The World Cup comes to Dallas once. The reward for guiding even one soul to Allah lasts forever. Be part of something historic.
