Comments Off on Night 17 – VIDEO – “When I first came to know that the Adhan have been broadcasting publicly, my heart was in disbelief until I witnessed it first hand…” – Madinah Masjid – 1015 Danforth Avenue – Toronto
I filmed this the other day. Drove down to Madinah Masjid in Toronto to hear the Adhaan (Islamic call to prayer) being played aloud.
It felt surreal.
Due to social distancing we couldn’t go into the masjid but we sat in the car and broke our fast. pic.twitter.com/iSd2OGKC70

Was a few blocks away when I heard the adhaan from this masjid today. Never heard the call to prayer outside of a masjid before…definitely one of the most surreal and beautiful experiences to come out of Ramadan in quarantine ❤️ https://t.co/ovis1ITNwX

Comments Off on 30 MORE | Day 15 – “City of Calgary approves request for Masjids across Calgary to broadcast Adhan Muslim Call to Prayer for remaining days of Ramadan 2020” – Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council
“Alhumdullilah,
we are very happy to announce that efforts made by AMPAC and other community members has resulted in the City of Calgary also approving our request for masjids across Calgary to broadcast the Adhaan—the Muslim call to prayer—for the remaining days of Ramadan starting today, May 8, 2020.
This approval is for the sunset or Maghrib prayer only.
The call to prayer does not invite people to physically gather; rather it is a beautiful gesture to bring our hearts together during this time of distancing.
Calgary now joins many mosques in Canada who have recently adopted the practice for the month of Ramadan for the sunset prayer only.
We will be in touch with majids and organizations in Calgary.
AMPAC has been designated as the main liaison between with the City of Calgary and the masjids for any Adhaan related items or updates.
AMPAC extends our deepest appreciation to the @cityofcalgary, City Council members, and most importantly, Mayor @nenshi for approving our request and understanding its importance to our community.
This is a huge milestone and showcases the true beauty of our city, province, and country.
@nenshi Dear Mr. Mayor,
City of Toronto and City of Mississauga has allowed mosques to call Muslim call for prayer (Adhan) on loudspeaker at the sunset during Ramadan. Will our City Council allow the same in Calgary? Thanks

Comments Off on 30 MORE | VIDEO – “The call to prayer, beautiful and haunting” – Anna Jarvis – The Windsor Star
“The sun set Thursday, and a deep, melodious voice began from a loudspeaker at Windsor Mosque.
“God is great,”
Imam Mohamed Al-Jammali sang in Arabic.
…
It was the athan, the Islamic call to prayer.
The same words have summoned faithful Muslims around the world daily for centuries.
It was beautiful and haunting.
It was over in less than three minutes.
But it stays with you.
…
It’s only symbolic.
The mosque’s hundreds of members can’t gather there or anywhere because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
But it’s providing much-missed connection during the holy month of Ramadan and comfort during the pandemic.
In a time of anxiety and isolation, it’s a moving example of the power of community and belonging.
Waiving the noise bylaw for a few minutes a night for a few weeks until May 23 to allow the athan is a small act that means a great deal to Windsor’s 25,000 Muslims.
It’s a gift for the rest of us, too.
Most of us have probably never heard it.
We’ve been enriched.
Among the remarkable displays of thoughtfulness and kindness during the pandemic, this is one of the simplest and finest.
…
So let me tell you a bit about Windsor Mosque.
Among its members are 20 or 30 doctors and many more nurses who work at Windsor Regional Hospital, the designated COVID-19 hospital.
Some used to rush to prayer still in their scrubs.
They work alongside healthcare workers from all religions, risking their health and that of their families to care for all of us during the pandemic.
For a month now, the mosque has been delivering baskets of food and household supplies to seniors and others who can’t go out to shop.
They have a dedicated phone line to call and request a basket.
Anyone can call, regardless of faith.
The mosque has also donated food to frontline workers at both hospitals.
It donates tens of thousands of dollars a year in food to food banks and The Downtown Mission.
It collaborates with all faiths to do this, from Jewish synagogues to Catholic churches.
…
This pandemic has taught us we must work together.
It has shown us what we can achieve when we do.”

Over the past ten years of 30 Masjids in 30 Days of Ramadan project,
I would document every Jumah Friday Prayer I attended during Ramadan.
Sometimes by video, often photos, rare time with audio recording only.
In all those years,
I could only attend One Jumah in person each Ramadan week.
The Pandemic Lockdown has changed all that.
Now I can attend many…
Many Masjids and regular Friday Prayer Providers have been livestreaming at least something around their regular Friday Prayer start times.
IIT Islamic Institute of Toronto, cancelled Jumah yet began livestreaming Friday Talks.
Islamic Foundation of Toronto livestreams a Friday Reminder.

Sayeda Khadija Centre livestreams a Jumah prayer now conducted inside vast empty Main Prayer Halls with the bare minimum of people present to make the Jumah valid.
Like our cousins in faith, Livestream Jumahs need a Minyan.
@HiMYSYeD Minimum Khutba: any remembrance. Properly, a reminder, call to virtue and mindfulness. Mention Quran and Prophetic guidance.
— Faraz Rabbani (@FarazRabbani) April 11, 2014
@FarazRabbani Alhumdulillah, followed your tweet advice, and I delivered the Qhutbah, with our ‘Minyan’ of 13, completing Friday Prayers.
— HïMY SYeD (@HiMYSYeD) April 11, 2014
Prior to Pandemic Lockdown of Masjids the world over,
Small to Medium sized Masjids would host two or three and sometimes up to five consecutive short Jumah Qhutbahs, Friday Prayer Lectures, to accommodate their overflowing Friday Congregations.
An Unintended Benefit of broadcasting / livestreaming is that every masjid who wants to, need only conduct One Friday Jumah Qhutbah.
That Single Jumah Qhutbah can be Quality instead of Quantity, unrushed and at length.
Everyone’s At Home due to the Pandemic Lockdown, what else are Muslims going to do Mid-Day on a Friday ?
Everyone who wants to watch, can watch from home at the same time.
Or catch their favourite Jumah Khateeb, Friday Lecturer, afterwards on youtube or elsewhere.

“I reflect quite often on the fact that I’m mayor of the fourth most diverse community in Canada.
It’s that diversity that helps make us stronger as a community.
I say that so often to different groups, and I really mean it.
When I hear, as mayor, racist comments or when I read some of the things that I’ve read I’m deeply disturbed by that because that does not reflect the broader community that I know in my city.
I think people appreciate that the city responded in this particular way.
And I think because of the situation that we’re in, it was the right thing to do.
We’re not alone doing it – many other cities across the country are doing it.
And I quite proud of that community and all that they’ve offered to help make our city better.”
– Mayor Drew Dilkens, City of Windsor

2) The waiver delegates authority to administration to not enforce the bylaw so long as prayer is limited to 5 minutes or less and is during waking hours and at a reasonable decibel level.
— Fabio Costante (@FabioCostante) May 6, 2020
4) As Canada’s 4th most multicultural City per capita, Windsor is a microcosm of our country & this waiver of bylaw, as reasonable & non-intrusive as it is, is also emblematic of what we hold dear as a nation: our charter of rights and freedoms, particularly freedom of religion.
— Fabio Costante (@FabioCostante) May 6, 2020
6) We recognize that our greatest gift is in how we treat others, different or alike, and how we’ve been able to co-exist peacefully in a world where hate and intolerance often prevail.
