Comments Off on 30 MORE | Umrah – Day 1 – Madinah, Saudi Arabia – Friday May 27 2011
AsalamAlayKum…
Earlier tonight, after praying Maghrib in the Darul Khair Masjid in Flemingdon Park neighbourhood in North York, I spent about 20 minutes searching the western skies for the new moon.
My search took me to Don Mills Road, across from the Ontario Science Centre.
With highrise towers no longer blocking the view, and only the tree tops fencing in the parking lot, I had fully expected to see the new moon.
SubhanAllah, nope. Not tonight. Marshmallow clouds hazed the horizon.
I emailed my report of a Negative Moonsighting to Br. Khalid Shaukat over at Moonsighting.com.
All the while, I was recalling how for the past three years, I intended to properly blog about my Umrah, the minor pilgrimage, to Makkah, and Zirayah, visit to Madinah, back in 2011.
So that’s what the above video is about along with an archive of tweets which follow these words.
Each day, for the following nine days leading to Eid-al-Adha 2014, beginning tonight, you will see a story of a video plus a collection of tweets related to it… InshAllah.
My Umrah was technically, and correctly, only a few hours in length in the City of Makkah.
However, if you the dear reader of this blog, will forgive me, the titles of this and following nine blog posts will include the word Umrah.
786 ..LabaikhAllahumaLabaikh…

Comments Off on 30 MORE | Medellín Y El Islam – Mariana Parra
Earlier this year, I was in Medellín, Colombia attending the World Urban Forum, learning all about Cities and how to bring Global Best Practices to my hometown of Toronto.
While there I blogged about the local Muslim Community. However, I wasn’t the only one learning about Medellín and its Muslim People. Mariana Parra made it her Senior Thesis topic and was there researching while I was visiting.

Comments Off on Day 23 – Fundraising Lecture and Iftar – Masjid Al-Qalam – Al-Qalam Islamic Community Centre – North York
Masjid Al-Qalam is one of the loose ends I wanted to tie up this year.
We first visited Al-Qalam Islamic Centre on Day 4 of Ramadan 2012. Then like now they were engaged in a fundraising campaign to either purchasing the building they were renting, or better still if they could secure a larger property nearby.
Then like now, I would be updated on their efforts via a flyer I picked up inside Masjid Toronto, downtown.
