Welcome to IMAU

The Islamic Medical Association of Uganda (IMAU) is a registered non-governmental organization established in 1988. The Association consists of over 400 Muslim health professionals who form the General Assembly, the association's highest authority. The leadership of the association consists of eleven members of the Executive Committee headed by the Chairman. IMAU was registered as a trusteeship in 2001. IMAU Board of Trustees consists of 15 members.
IMAU has branches in 17 districts of Uganda.

IMAU’s motto is:“We are on Allah’s selfless health service”.

This motto is derived from Allah’s guidance in the Holy Qur’an: Chapter 6 Verse 162:“

"Say: Truly my prayer, and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death are all for Allah the Cherisher of the worlds”

In order to achieve its mission and vision, IMAU has set itself three broad goals:
I.      To improve the health status of the community using Islamic principles.
II.      To improve the scientific, management and Islamic knowledge, attitudes and practices of Muslim health professionals.
III.      To achieve a sustainable association of Muslim health professionals that provides high quality health care services.

Mission and vision: IMAU gets life and meaning from serving Allah.  IMAU members recognize that their life, energy and medical knowledge are gifts and privileges given to them by Allah for the purpose of serving Allah through caring for others.  IMAU members therefore, have a spirit of voluntarism and sacrifice as they use their God given gifts and privileges to care and improve the health of the community.  IMAU is aspiring to become a model of excellence in Islamic faith based health service delivery for all.  IMAU seeks to portray an image of a trustworthy, nonpartisan, efficient organization which provides health services to all with guidance of Islamic principles.

IMAU Mission: “To have united Islamic conscious Muslim health professionals who use Islamic teachings to promote a healthy and productive life for all”.

IMAU Vision: “A sound Islamic medical association of Muslim health professionals with excellence in Islamic health service delivery”.
