Backed by Proven Stewardship and Execution
Al Furqaan Foundation
Criterion is backed by the endowment of Al Furqaan Foundation, a leading Islamic nonprofit institution in North America with over two decades of service to the Muslim community. Al Furqaan is the owner and publisher of The Clear Quran® Series, one of the most widely read and distributed English translations of the Quran globally, reaching millions of readers across print, digital, and audio formats.
Through its waqf-based model, Al Furqaan has consistently focused on long-term impact, ethical governance, and preservation of Islamic knowledge. Its work spans education, publication, digital platforms, and global distribution, with measurable reach across hundreds of thousands of households, institutions, and learning environments worldwide.
Al Furqaan’s involvement ensures that Criterion is guided by religious stewardship, accountability, and a commitment to serving the Ummah beyond short-term financial outcomes.
