Much respect to Brother Spider-Man 🙏😂😂 ‏لو سبايدر مان كان مسلم

“…From a prayer guide published by the Turkish department of religious affairs and was geared towards teaching praying (salat in Arabic and Namaz in Turkish, Persian, Urdu, Hindi and Bengali) to children.”

“The second image is supposed to be a spoof of the first one and was created by the more secular elements of the Turkish society to illustrate their viewpoint of the new influence of religion in the public sphere.”

Muhammad Aurangzeb Ahmad, IslamSciFi.com

Which brings us to that time I was riding the rocket in Toronto . . .

The Toronto Batman vs Toronto Spider-Man.

 

 

The Qur’an and the Miracle of the Spider : “… if they but knew.”

 

 

 

Tonight was MAC Centre Vancouver‘s First Taraweeh Prayer since the Partial Reopening Announcement.

The Masjid is only open for Friday Jumah Prayers, Isha and Taraweeh as you can see in this video.

You can also see Physical Distancing being practiced.

No large prayer carpet was unrolled, only the hardwood floor.

Worshippers brought their own personal prayer mats from home.

Personal Prayer Mats are spaced two metres apart.

Masjid Entry was pre-booked and age-restricted Taraweeh Attendance was limited to the first 50 sign-ups.

Alhamdulil, first taraweh prayer with Dr Muhtaz

Adhan (Call to Prayer) on Loudspeaker from Jami Mosque Toronto By Shaikh Hamdy Abdelghaffar

Jaame Masjid Scarborough (Central Mosque)
is located at 3667 Lawrence Avenue East in Scarborough.

I had broken my fast inside this masjid on Day 5 of Ramadan 2015.

This afternoon,

All we can do is visit it from the outside by driving by . . .

Drive-Thru Cupcake Pickup at the Double Eye Tee !

1630 Neilson Road in Scarborough is where the Cupcakes are.

First you see is a “CLOSED” sign, the second thing you see is the Canadian Flag.

Islamic Institute of Toronto.

Kind of expected a rush, yet there is no rush, no line up of cars.

Brother Fareed Amin welcomes us then directs us to where the Cupcakes are.

Contactless Cupcake picking upping.

Eid Mubarak !

Cupcakes  and  one Free Iftar courtesy of Penny Appeal ? . . . Free Iftar !

Eyes on the prize . . .

Elected Official Shaun Chen has donated a package of Masks for each Cupcake Picker upper !

Very nice.

Mask are Much Appreciated Shaun Chen !

The volunteers offered to put the Cupcakes and that Free Iftar in our car’s trunk, keeping everything contactless.

 

Hi mom.

Eid Mubarak.

And then it’s Cupcake pickup time for people in the car behind us.

Thank you. Come again.

This was different. I don’t properly recall this unpaved parking area immediately north of the building.

I don’t remember that was this second gate here.

This second northside gate certainly is useful when the IIT becomes busy.

“Ramadan Kareem & Blessed Eid!”

“Thanks to our frontline workers.
Stay safe!”

Bye Bye Eye Eye Tee . . .

Friday Evening,

Adhan Al Maghrib, Call to The Prayer after Sunset,

Was broadcast via loudspeaker at MAC Centre Vancouver, 2122 Kingsway.

Athan Almaghrib live

Posted by MAC Centre – Vancouver on Friday, May 15, 2020

23rd Night of Ramadan 1441,

First Maghrib Adhan broadcast by Imam Abdullah

HIA Halton Islamic Association.

Alhumdulillah,

With this Public Adhan Al Maghrib being broadcast outside via loudspeaker on the Campus of Memorial University,

and

with Public Adhan now being broadcast outside Masjid Al-Iman in Victoria, British Columbia,

Canada now has Public Adhan Al Maghrib, Call to The Prayer after Sunset, from Coast-to-Coast, Island-to-Island, with many cities in-between.

In Ramadan 2016,

I completed a Trans-Canada 30 Masjids in 30 Days of Ramadan . . .

Day 0 of Ramadan 2016 began with Muslim Students’ Association of Memorial University.

My first Iftar and my first Isha & Taraweeh prayers of Ramadan 2016,

were on the campus of Memorial University in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador.

This year, due to the Pandemic Lockdown,

There is No Public Iftar,

No Public Isha Prayer,

No Public Taraweeh Prayer in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

This year, due to the Pandemic Lockdown,

There is Public Adhan Al Maghrib.

The Muslim Students’ Association at Memorial University in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, asked their University and was granted permission to broadcast Adhan Al Maghrib, Call to The Prayer after Sunset.

Their First Ever Public Adhan.

Previously in February of 2017,

The Call to Prayer was heard via loudspeaker from St. John’s only Masjid . . .

Friend & Supporter of 30Masjids, Faisal Kutty,

Along with Mustafa Farooq were interviewed by Indus News.

They were discussing Public Adhan in Canada.

While the segment was playing,

On screen in-between both speakers,

The very recognizable Jami Mosque main prayer hall appeared.

Clip looked so familiar to me . . .

And, yes!

Alhamdulillah,

The clip which was looped to accompany their discussion was recorded by me inside Toronto’s Jami Mosque on Day 9 of Ramadan 2015 !
