BAGUIO CITY — The National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF)-North Luzon, led by Regional Director Atty. Raihanah Sarah T. Macarimpas, through its Cultural Affairs Division (CAD) headed by Acting Chief Faharodin Salacop, and the Socio-Economic Development Division (SEDD) under Acting Chief Amin Dianalan, has conducted a profiling of Masjids and Madrasah (plural: Madaris) s in various Municipalities and the City of La Union.
The staff of the NCMF-North Luzon visited the following locations:

They also paid a courtesy visit to Muslim community leader of the province, Zainal Macapundag, president. The discussion centered on strategies to encourage Muslim Filipinos to pursue Arabic Madrasah subjects to enhance Muslim youth’s knowledge on Islam and deepen their Islamic faith.
As a result of the visits and updates on the various Masajid (Masjid) and Madaris, it was noted that some of the Imams (prayer leaders) and Ustadhs (teachers) were Tausug, Meranao, and Balik Islam brothers. This diversity is a testament to the unity and peace among Muslim constituents, where people of different tribes live in peaceful and harmonious relationships with their neighbors.
