Azzam opened branches of the Office of Services in the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Sweden, Norway, and throughout the Middle East. Dozens of centers opened throughout the United States, mostly at mosques and Islamic community centers. Major Alkhifa Centers were set up in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Pittsburgh, and Tucson, while thirty other American cities were the sites of subsidiary Alkhifa offices.

The Office of Services published a monthly magazine called Al-Jihad, a full-color Arabic-language magazine that detailed the battle stories from the front lines of the mujahideen. The issues were frequently full of gory pictures of young men whose limbs had been severed as well as inspiring eulogies to the shahids (martyrs) who gave their lives for jihad. In its heyday, Al-Jihad reached 50,000 people, at least half in the United States, according to interviews with Al-Jihad leaders. Al-Jihad was distributed within the United States by the Tucson, Arizona, and Brooklyn, New York, Alkhifa centers. Articles frequently contained incendiary attacks and conspiratorial allegations against the United States, Europe, Christians, and Jews, exposing their “crimes” against Islam. From Palestine to Bosnia, Al-Jihad called for Muslims to pick up the gun and wage jihad to kill the infidels and “all enemies of Islam.”
