In need of Guidance and Friendship

Hello.  I am not of the muslim faith, although I've a friend who is.  I do not
understand the faith at all - due to non-exposure and lack of enviromental surroundsing.  
The reason I'm posting is b/c My friend is incarcerated at the time, and is looking for
someone to communicate with that believes in the same mannor as he does.  I really have no
idea where to post, or who to contact to get him in touch w/someone.  I know that most
religions have a Prison Ministry, or just believers who are willing to make new friends and
discuss their beliefs.  That's what I'm looking for.  If you are reading this and would
like to begin correspondence w/Tony, I can assure you he is an open and friendly person
who will write faithfully.
If you're interested - have any suggestions as to where I should turn w/such a request,
or just have any questions, please feel free to email me. :)  Thanks so much & Have a
great day!

Just an idea.
Maybe you can email the mods on the board and let them know what area. If they can help you locate an Islamic center in that area they may be willing to assist. Was just a thought.

My daughter is incarcerated in South Carolina in a womens facility.

She asked the prison chaplain about an Islamic contact and he put her in touch with the Muslim Affairs "Chaplain", who became her Imam.

If you need information about finding a prison Muslim "Chaplain" I know a Sheikh in Virginia who deals primarily with prisons and US Military personnel.  You can contact him at:  sheikyusuf@aol.com.  I met Sheikh Yusuf when visiting my daughter when she had open-heart surgery last May (2002).  I was a 1 week old Muslim when I met him!
