Where Faith Meets the Court

Salam Dunk is where Muslim Athletes Push their Limits

Our Mission

About Us

At Salam Dunk, we're more than just a basketball league. We're a movement, fusing the intensity of competitive sports with the strength of Islamic values. Founded in Knoxville, we've created a space where Muslim athletes push their limits, foster unbreakable bonds, and grow in their faith.

Spirituality and Sports, TOgether

In a world that often separates sport from spirituality, we're bringing them together. Every game is a chance to embody the teachings of our faith—discipline, respect, teamwork, and striving for excellence.

  • The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, while there is good in both." (Sahih Muslim)
  • At Salam Dunk, we take this hadith to heart. We're building strength—in body, mind, and spirit. Every dribble, every pass, every shot is an act of ibadah. Join us. Elevate your game. Strengthen your faith. This is Salam Dunk.
