Sidi Jeremy Donald Campion

Sidi Jeremy Donald Campion, American Muslim teacher and student of Islamic Law. Born in 1978 in the mid-western United States, was educated in Asian studies and education at the University of Michigan and the University of Phoenix. His interest in Islam was sparked in 1991 at The American School in Japan, just outside of Tokyo, and he later studied the traditional Islamic Sciences of Shafi'i jurisprudence, practical spirituality (tazkiya), Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir), and tenets of faith (`aqidah) with sheikhs from Yemen and Jordan, where he lived this past summer in order to increase his knowledge. His One Ummah Basketball Camp has been held annually over the last four years, providing Muslim youth with affordable instruction and guidance that rivals top non-Muslim camps. He now teaches at Ann Arbor’s Michigan Islamic Academy after having taught at Franklin’s Huda School and Canton’s Crescent Academy.

Works that he’s studied with sheikhs include: Al-Maqasid: Imam Nawawi's Manual of Islam; Jawharat al Tawhid: Laqani’s Jewel of Divine Oneness; Ihya Ulum al-Din: Imam Ghazali’s Revival of the Religious Sciences; and Tafsir ibn Juzayy.  He currently operates Muslim Merchant Services, a business designed to address the needs of Muslim store-owners and small businesses.
