The site includes a section called “Voices of Moderation.” The Shariah Index Project, for example, seeks to address the questions: What is the right balance between the institutions of religious and political authority in the modern state?
[10] The Initiative lists the following activities on their website: convening annual meetings of Islamic scholars, media appearances, lectures and publications, creating Cordoba House, shaping a strong and moderate Muslim-American community,[11] building bridges with those of other faiths, combatting “Islamophobia”, and the Shariah Index Project, by which they say they will create a blueprint by which democracy will take place in the Muslim world.
Imam Feisal brings together leaders across the Muslim-West divide to speak out for innovative, proactive, and positive solutions to shared challenges.
In this capacity, Cordoba Initiative can provide novel solutions to those areas where conflict between Islamic and Western communities undermine local and global security.
ASMA currently serves as the project's fiscal agent, and the two organizations share infrastructure, space, utilities, vendor services, and co-sponsorship of programs.
