Ramadan is a month eagerly awaited by Muslims around the world.
It was during this month that the Qur’an was revealed to Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him). It’s a month of initiation that systematically dismantles egotism and induces sympathy for the sufferings of the weak and the vulnerable. It generously grants us the time and space to understand what drives us, analyze our emotional blocks, wounds and anxieties and master them.

What’s the Difference Between Aman Ali (@AmanAli) and Bassam Tariq (@curry_crayola)’s 30Mosques and our Toronto’s own 30Masjids?

Comments Off on Introducing: 30 MORE
My intention was to get to this much earlier in the month. Like in the First Ten Day of Ramadan…
Instead, here we are on the eve of the 27th Night of Ramadan.
However, as my brother Amir once told me.
If it wasn’t for the last minute, nothing would ever get done.
This Blog and project, 30 Masjids.ca – 30 Masjids in 30 days in The Greater Toronto Area was originally inspired by Bassam Tariq and Aman Ali’s 30 Mosques Ramadan tour of New York City in 2009 and 2010.
They inadvertantly began a worldwide movement.
Muslims now blog daily visits to different masjids all over the world.
You can see a number of their RSS feeds along the right sidebar ——>
If you haven’t clicked on a link or two, please do.
They are all well written, and well worth your precious Ramadan Time.
InshAllah, a review of their best posts and a summary of each of their Ramadan Travels so far will be posted here in 30 MORE.

Comments Off on Day 25 – Malton Islamic Centre – Mississauga | By Zainab Omar
By Zainab Omar
There is a centre in Brampton called The Lote Tree Foundation.
It is a learning and resource center run by teachers who are from the GTA and studied traditional Islamic sciences for a number of years overseas.
Sisters can join the mailing list and subscribe to an “Educated Muslimah Series” which is primarily a monthly Qur’an Khatm.
Sisters can sign up for sections of the Qur’an to read in advance, with the remaining being read together during a monthly meetup. Today’s meetup was held at the Malton Islamic Centre.
It is the first one that I attended in person.

In his travels, Guru Nanak visited Makkah and Madinah.
In my 30 Masjids travels, I visited Dixie Gurdwara at 7080 Dixie Road in Mississauga.
On Day 20, it was here at sunset that I broke my Ramadan Fast.

Comments Off on Day 23 – Masjid Qurtabah – A Hidden Gem in Scarborough | By Kaif Khan
I cherish the times spent within the masjid my family and I go to.
Masjid Qurtabah is our mosque of choice. Therefore I was naturally jubilant when it was reviewed as one of the 30 masjids by Himy Syed.
The jubilation soon faded as I noticed that the key features of Masjid Qurtabah were overlooked.

Darul Khair Islamic Center, Suite 133 – 135 St. Denis Drive in Flemingdon Park.
There is so much to say about this little Musallah.
There is so much going on, it will always be a tight fit.
