Emerging from the awareness to enhance Islamic values, identity
and understanding among Malaysian students in the United States and
Canada, the Malaysian Islamic Study Group (MISG) was founded in Peoria,
Illinois in the year 1976. The main objective of its establishment is to assist
the Malaysian students in walking the path of success whilst they
are here, in fulfilling their responsibilities as students, as members of
their communities and as servants of God. Now, after more than 20
years of its establishment, MISG has a huge number of members branching in
almost each university which has Malaysian students. In addition, its
alumni, numbering in thousands, are currently back in Malaysia working towards
developing the country, by using their skills that they attained here, in
making Malaysia a better place.
