Islamic Medical Association of South Africa (IMASA)

Islamic Medical Association of South Africa (IMASA) A national organization with branches in various parts of the country.

As Muslim medical and health professionals we are committed to the values expressed by the Hippocratic Oath and believe that it is our responsibility to serve the community. The Islamic Medical Association is a non profit organization that has been taking healthcare to the people for the last 30 years. The organization was established by a group of young doctors who realized that health care to the underprivileged was compromised and of inferior quality. The precursor of the Islamic Medical Association of South Africa (IMA), called Lajnatul Attiba (The Doctors’ Committee) was formed in July 1974, amid much opposition from medical and non medical Muslims and non Muslims. These were humble beginnings with meetings being held at the homes of the handful of members. The Lajnatul Attiba was transformed into the IMA in 1979 and the first IMA Durban Branch Meeting was held on Tuesday, 30 October 1979. The IMA has grown in leaps and bounds and has over the years developed into a large national body with a membership of around 1000 health care professionals and a further 5500 on the mailing list. The Islamic Medical Association is a national organization with branches all over South Africa. The IMA’s main branches operate in Durban, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Klerksdorp and Ladysmith. . IMA South Africa is affiliated to the Federation of Islamic Medical Associations (FIMA) which is the international body of IMA’s across the world.

IMASA DURBAN PROTESTS AGAINST ISRAELS WEAPONISATION OF HUNGER

On the 4th of September, IMASA Durban staff joined a powerful protest outside hospitals in Durban, to raise awareness about Israel's weaponization of hunger in Gaza. Members stood outside Ahmed Al-Kadi Private Hospital and Lenmed Shifa Hospital, protesting against the forced starvation in Palestine and advocating for the protection of healthcare workers in Palestine and an end to the genocide.

We urge everyone to join the call for justice by boycotting Israeli products and taking action to stop the genocide and starvation that is devastating innocent lives, especially children, in Gaza. Let's come together to demand peace and an end to the suffering.

May our voices be heard, and may Allah bring peace and justice to Gaza. Inshallah.
