Masjid in Markham Ontario Petition

Hope everyone is doing great by the grace of the Almighty allah.

As most of you may know, our community in Markham Ontario has acquired a land for the Masjid and we have gotten the approval by the city for the site plan. A group of residents from this neighborhood don’t like the idea of a Mosque and have started a campaign to reverse the decision of the city by citing traffic, parking, against cultural heritage etc. They have petitioned the Mayor and the councilors to reverse their decision and there is a serious threat that they may be able to derail the project or delay it.

There is a petition that has been started to show our support, please sign it and forward to all your friends and families, also post in any social media websites that you can.

The people opposing it have started a petition and have already gotten over 3500 signatures and are presenting this to the city every week. They are spending their time, money and effort to oppose this project, lets us at least show our support by signing the petition.

The masjid will be built with or without our support, it is up to us to be counted among those that have done all that it takes to support it. Please sign and forward this to others. I have about 50 people on this list, if you can each send it to 50 other people inshallah in a few days we will be able to exceed the opposing petition and present it to the city.

Wassalam

Surah Yaseen by Sheikh Sudais

Surah An-Noor

And were it not for Allah’s grace upon you and His mercy in this world and the hereafter, a grievous chastisement would certainly have touched you on account of the discourse which you entered into.

Instructor: Bilal Ismail

Learn about the greatest act of worship that your limbs will perform in this life – ṣalāh. The most oft-performed act of worship, hence the most important fiqh course for every Muslim.

ENROLL NOW

Surah At-Taĥrīm (The Prohibtiion) – سورة التحريم

O you who have believed, repent to Allah with sincere repentance. Perhaps your Lord will remove from you your misdeeds and admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow [on] the Day when Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believed with him. Their light will proceed before them and on their right; they will say, “Our Lord, perfect for us our light and forgive us. Indeed, You are over all things competent.”(66:8)

Surah Ana`am

Indeed Allah’s mercy has been upon him, from whom the punishment has been averted on that Day; and this is the clear success.[6:16]

How welcome are Muslims in Canada?

Besides the call for revolution, one common slogan in the recent Middle East uprisings is “Allahu akbar,” Arabic for “God is the greatest.” Add to these chants the recent declaration by the Libyan national transition council that Libya will abide by Islamic law, and most recently the victory of the Islamist Ennahda party in Tunisia, and you can understand why many in the West are alarmed about the rise of Islam. Is this alarm a legitimate concern, or is it Islamophobia?

In a recent survey by Léger Marketing for the Association of Canadian Studies in Montreal, Canadians were asked how positive they feel about different groups. Muslims received the lowest ranking. The results echoed the findings of a previous survey for the association, this one marking 10 years since 9/11, which found that a majority of Canadians believe that conflicts between Western nations and the Muslim world are “irreconcilable.”

Muslims continue to struggle to integrate safely and openly into Canadian society. Even Canadian-born Muslims find it difficult to be Muslim; growing up as a Muslim here isn’t always easy. Most kids and teenagers are afraid of expressing their Islamic identity, and thus end up living a kind of doublestandard life filled with psychological dilemmas and religious and moral sacrifices.

Whether it’s a girl wearing a hijab, a guy praying during lunch hour at school, or simply having a name such as Osama or Jihad, Muslims are often intimidated about expressing themselves and the values they cherish. I remember as a student having to pray at the bottom end of stairwells during lunch hour, since the school wouldn’t provide space for this purpose for a few minutes, even when all the classrooms were free.

Intolerant attitudes don’t end when one becomes an adult. I was sitting in a public park in Montreal over the summer with my wife and two children, which was enough to attract the attention of a passerby who held a cellphone and pretended to speak to someone about the contamination of the park with Muslims. He spoke loudly enough that we could hear him. Finally, the language became so foul that we left.

In the last few years, Canadians have been exposed to a wide range of negativity about Islam. There was a proposal to bar public services being made available to anyone who wore a niqab in Quebec, bans on girls wearing the hijab while playing sports, and most notably, the passing of a “code of conduct” by the municipality of Hérouxville that prohibited the stoning of women! More recently, Ontario schools were under fire for allowing Muslims to pray at school.

Islamophobia is harmful to all Canadians, irrespective of their faith. Muslims form an integral and constructive part of Canadian society. Take a close look at your daily dealings and see how often they include interactions with Muslims: your visit to the hospital, meeting a professor at university or classmates in school, your ride in a taxicab, your order from the shawarma restaurant, or passing a local mosque as you’re driving.

Islam carries deeply rooted respect, understanding and love for others regardless of their faith or ideology. The Quran clearly states: “There’s no compulsion in religion.” Islam also makes it clear that “the best of people are those who are most beneficial to others.”

The rise of Islamophobia means immediate steps need to be taken to educate people about Islam and Muslims in Canada.

The causes of Islamophobia must be addressed, and clear guidelines formulated to identify and put an end to Islamophobic actions. Only when this happens will the fears and concerns that we manufacture fade away, replaced with the respect and freedom that we hope for.

Surah ‘Āli `Imrān (Family of Imran) – سورة آل عمران

And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allah upon you – when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be guided.[3:103].
