[1] Sadiq converted over seven hundred Americans to Islam directly, and over one thousand indirectly.

[4][5] He was also important in the movement of trying to unite a multicultural group of Muslim immigrants, from Arabs to Bosnians, to build mosques and have congregational prayers, especially in Detroit and Chicago.

[6] Sadiq entered the US without any financial resources, and embarked upon spreading the message of Islam in an area that was completely alien to his native culture.

Consequently, he faced many difficulties, trials, and tribulations due to his skin color and religion.

Sadiq also managed to establish the Moslem Sunrise, the longest running Muslim publication in America, as well as writing many articles on Islam in various American periodicals and newspapers.
