The Muslim Legal Fund of America is a national nonprofit that funds legal cases and related programs defending civil liberties and constitutional rights in the United States, with a particular emphasis on national security matters. As a 501(c)(3) organization, its donations are tax-deductible and zakat-eligible, aligning with its philanthropic framework. Established in 2001, the group operates from Richardson, Texas, and supports cases that uphold the U.S. Bill of Rights, including protections for freedom of speech, freedom of religion, fair trial rights, and due process. It positions itself as a national civil liberties legal fund within the nonprofit sector, funding both litigation and related programs to defend justice principles in America. A notable recent development is the organization hosting its inaugural Annual Summit at SMU Dedman School of Law in August 2025.
