Chaplain Felton Quiett (Ali Khn Salaam)

WOODVILLE, Miss. -- Imam Felton Quiett aka Ali Khan Salaam, contract chaplain for Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF) in Woodville, Miss., is featured in the national Islamic Horizons magazine. The magazine is the flagship bi-monthly publication of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). Quiett and the Muslim offenders in a Taleem class at WCCF are featured on page 18 in the May/June 2019 issue. Their photo is in full color. Quiett and his Taleem class also are featured in a recent issue of the Muslim Journal.

Quiett, who has served at WCCF for nearly 5 years, was honored earlier this year for his ministry to the Muslim offenders. The deputy warden of programs and chaplain at WCCF presented him with a Certificate of Appreciation and a Special Recognition Award (plaque) for his contributions to the Religious Programs at WCCF. Tonya Toomey was the deputy warden of programs when the photo was taken.
