Islamic Supreme Council Of AmericaThe Islamic Supreme Council of America is a Muslim religious organzation in the United States. The ISCA strives to integrate traditional scholarship in resolving contemporary issues affecting the maintenance of Islamic beliefs in a modern, secular society. This Council promotes traditional Islamic legal rulings, and explicitly rejects puritanical and violent forms of Islam, such as the Wahhabi, Islam practised by Saudi Arabia, the Taliban, and many Islamic terrorist organizations. ISCA's leadership has been working to expose and fight against fundamentalist and violent Islamist groups. Controversial Islamic groups that support Islamist forms of Islam, have consistently opposed moderate Muslims from speaking out on these issues. Members of the Islamic Supreme Council of America have come under death threats and harassment from fundamentalist American Muslims. Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani of the Islamic Supreme Council of America (ISCA) is critical of Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the American Muslim Council (AMC) saying "There are many Muslim organizations that claim to speak on behalf of the Muslim community but that in reality are not moderate, but extremist."
