In 2011,
Three, and later on four, Indonesian Muslimahs began tumblr blogging 30 Mosques in 30 Days of Ramadan from the point of view of women.
Joining the worldwide 30 Mosques in 30 Days of Ramadan movement started in New York City in 2009 by Bassam Tariq and Aman Ali.
Salaam. We are three Indonesian women humbly trying to know more about Islam through its mosques worldwide. Let’s share some stories!

30 Masjids and Pink Mosques both begin in Ramadan 2011.
After Ramadan 2012,
Pink Mosques also began blogging visits to masjids year round, not just in Ramadan, and not just in Indonesia.
January 2013 ,
Pink Mosques and 30 Masjids met up in Detroit and together visited The Islamic Centre of America, the Largest Masjid in America, in Dearborn, Michigan.

Ollie is a prolific writer, editor, and publisher.
With her and her three friends’ numerous Masjid visits, they eventually had enough stories for proper book.
Out of the blue, Ollie surprised me by asking me to write a chapter for her Pink Mosques book.
What does a Muslim Brother, me, know about Muslim Women and their experiences in Toronto Masjids ?
You can read Chapter 52, Masjids in Toronto Canada, on the Storial.CO platform for the answer !
My chapter was written in English.
Others chapters are in Indonesian.
If you don’t know the spoken language of the country currently with the World’s largest Muslim population, you now have a good reason to learn !
Pink Mosques in a bilingual book.
