[gview file=”http://30masjids.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Medellín-Y-El-Islam-Mariana-Parra.pdf”]
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.

Comments Off on Day 17 – Isha – Taraweeh – Gateway Public School, Flemingdon Park, North York
Tonight was a TOTAL Surprise!
My brother Amir and I were on the Bus heading downtown to an as-yet-to-be-decided Isha and Taraweeh location. Looking out the bus window, we suddenly spot a young Topi-Clad brother in the posture of calling the Adhan through a Gymnasium window in the Public School we were passing.
Having suddenly discovered a new Isha and Taraweeh prayer space, Amir immediately encouraged me to hop off the bus with the intent to experience it and write it up for 30Masjids with a single word, “Go!”.
So I did.
