"Where everyone is welcome" -- can
there be such a place? I pray so.

The sign itself is an eyesore, but wow, looks
like there are great positive vibes emanating
from here. A traditionalist imam on iTunes,
who knows how to talk to Americans... exactly
what we need more of.

Khalid, I don't know if I would call it an eyesore exactly, but it IS one of those typical sort
of masjid signs, yeah. Except for the
EVERYONE IS WELCOME part, of course. ;) It's
an extremely humble sort of
building/location, but you're exactly right -
the experience is filled with positive vibes,
and there are few masajid I could say that
about.

The sign was donated by a company who
understood our little masjid had very little
money to spare. Before this there was no sign
whatsoever. I can't tell you how many people
have come to Islam

Sister Khadijah, how your comment made me
smile! =) First of all, I'm honored you
stopped by, and commented, too. Secondly,
Masjid al-Iman is the most beautiful masjid I
have ever attended, and it breaks my heart I
have not been able to go to jummah there for
nearly five months now. I keep consoling
myself that someday soon my schedule will
change and then I'll be back in Oakland on
Fridays."Where everyone is welcome" -- can
there be such a place? I pray so. ) sums up the
distrust/incredulousness/cynicism many of us
feel towards masjids. Masjid al-Iman is the
first masjid that has ever regularly made me
feel at home, the first masjid that ever made
me look forward to prayers in congregation,
and the first masjid that made me feel I left
behind a piece of my heart on MLK the day I
was unable to continue attending jummah
prayers there. Those who've made the masjid
the loving, welcoming place it is deserve all
that is good and beautiful.
