Summary

Islamway (Tariq al-Islam) is an Islamic website known for its Islamic audio, with sections for fatwas, articles, books, educational animations and a women's corner. 1

Beginnings

It was begun by two people around the end of 1998, and its team, the site says, has since grown to more than 150 volunteers. 1 Its earliest capture in the Internet Archive is dated 12 December 1998, on the domain islamway.com, titled "The Islamway Radio": English and Arabic pages with about fifty suras in the voices of well-known reciters, Islamic lectures, a prayer page with pictures and sound, and a library under construction. 2

Its method, as it states it

The site says it holds to the evidence of the Qur'an and the Sunna, rejects partisanship for any party, group or sect, is open to all Islamic currents on condition of spreading the truth, calls for the unity of the umma and against division among preachers and Islamic movements, and aims to raise a generation, spread religious knowledge and make Muslim causes known. 1
