Annual Report 2007 3 President’s Remarks Dear Sisters and Brothers: Assalamu alaikum! On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Mosque Foundation, I humbly submit to you our Annual Report, asking for God’s acceptance and for your prayers, continuous support, and counsel. Serving a Mosque and its community is sacred work that is crucial to the success of our families and Islam in this area of the world. In a well known narration by Uthman Ibn Affan, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be on him, said, “Whoever builds a mosque, desiring thereby Allah’s pleasure, Allah builds for him the like of it in paradise.” (B. 8: 65) Facilities Building a Mosque needs collective community participation, pooling of resources, financial sacrifices, and, more importantly, purity of sincerity and intentions. We are in the midst of our largest expansion, which will triple our capacity (from 17,000 to 42,000 square feet), provide us with two new prayer areas for our sisters, a new prayer area for men, three baby sitting areas, a reading room and library, lecture hall for educational programs and interfaith activities, new offices for the Imams, secretary, the executive committee, and counseling, a new kitchen, a new washing area for women and men, a board and meeting room, a welcoming lobby at the entrance, all within a beautiful structure that connects aesthetically to the original Mosque building and crowned by a symbolic minaret and three additional domes.

The Board of Directors, staff and volunteers of the Mosque Foundation proudly inform you of the developments and growth achieved by our community in 2008. We have reached many consequential milestones and surpassed expectations to deliver exceptional results, by the will of Allah (SWT). Our most noticeable improvement, the expansion project, is nearing completion. By the grace of Allah (SWT), our community truly joined hearts and extended hands, selflessly and generously, in hopes of concluding this historic endeavor. Our newly expanded Masjid enthusiastically opened its doors to thousands of worshippers last Ramadan, and for the first time in many years, we prayed Eid salah in unison, without the need to hold two separate prayers. The new, three-floor structure, the product of your spiritual and financial devotion, has added 25,000 sq. ft. to the existing 17,700 sq. ft. facility. The building, now able to accommodate an additional 1,200 worshippers, also includes much needed, and already utilized, halls and rooms for concurrent programs, childcare, a bookstore, kitchen, boardroom and administrative offices.

  • Muslim Communities in North America
    MUSLIM COMMUNITIES IN NORTH AMERICA Edited by Yvonne Yazbeck Haddad and Jane Idleman Smith CHAPTER 3 Urban Muslims: The Formation of the Dar ul-Islam Movement R. M. Mukhtar Curtis THE EARLY ATTRACTION TO ORTHODOX ISLAM About forty years ago Rajah Mahmud, Ishaq Abdush-Shaheed, Yahya Abdul-Kareem, Hasan Abdul-Hameed, Sulayman Abdul­ Hadi, Luqman Abdul-Aleem, and others made up an amorphous group of New York African American converts to Islam. I Like many other African American converts in the New York area, they came into Islam by way of an immigrant connection or a "jazz route": many Muslims living in Harlem during the late 1940s and early 1950s were musicians.2 The converts frequently socialized at restaurants run by Muslims from the Caribbean and at clubs that featured Muslim entertainers or those attracted to Islam at one time or another such as Dakota Staton, Charlie Parker, and John Coltrane. When the converts socialized they often discussed the necessity for a Dar al-Islam, an area where Muslims could practice and live an Islamic life as the norm without fear or apprehension. 3 This was their answer to the racism, segregation, and caste system of Ameri­ ca that came to the forefront of the national consciousness with such events as the lynching of 14-year-old Emmett Till and the rise to prominence of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. 4 Underly­ ing the bombings of Negro churches and homes, the lynchings of African Americans, and other forms of resistance by white Ameri­ ca to integration was the attitude that black Americans were "be­ ings of an inferior order, and altogether unfit to associate with the 51 52 R.

    3 The Religious Turn American Muslims for Palestine May 17, 2014 dawned crisp and bright as I drove west on East 87th Street toward Bridgeview, a near southwestern suburb. American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) was staging its Nakba Day commemoration in the Aqsa School parking lot across from the Mosque Foundation. Every year, Palestinians honor this day to mark their dispossession in 1948. In Palestine, they fly black flags and recount the events of that formative “catastrophe” (the literal meaning of “nakba”) through com- memorative displays, gatherings, and speeches. In the United States, activist groups use Nakba Day to raise awareness about the Palestinian situation and cause. Two days prior to the AMP event, for example, Students for Justice in Palestine chapters held remembrances on university cam- puses across Chicago featuring historical photographs of the eras of 1948 and 1967 and also a large replica of the wall that Israel had built in the West Bank and around Jerusalem. Members passed out flyers advocating the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions campaign and talked with fellow students about Israeli repressive mea- sures in the Occupied Territories. AMP’s commemoration featured a comparable photographic display as well as a similar wall replica.1 There were also speeches by the imam of the Mosque Foundation, who invoked the Prophet Muhammad’s isra’ (journey from Mecca to Jerusalem on the back of the winged steed Buraq) and his mi‘raj (ascent from the Haram al-Sharif platform through the heavens to the foot of God’s throne). With the mosque’s dome and minaret as a backdrop, the link between Islam and the Nakba in AMP’s commemoration was hard to miss.

  • Kifah Mustapha’S Links to the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) and the Islamic Association for Palestine T(IAP)
    Introduction he following memo describes in depth Kifah Mustapha’s links to the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) and the Islamic Association for Palestine T(IAP). During the HLF Hamas financing trial, both HLF and IAP were identified by the U.S. government as part of the Palestine Committee, a Hamas support network created by the Muslim Brotherhood. HLF’s assets were frozen in December 2001 by the U.S. and the organization was found guilty in 2008 of funneling money to Hamas. This memo also identifies the ties of Mustapha’s current employer, The Mosque Foundation of Bridgeview, Illinois, to HLF, IAP and other Islamist organizations. Mustapha has also continued to raise money for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups. Additionally, it appears that during a 2004 civil deposition, Mustapha failed to disclose the extent of his leadership role with the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP). Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) n November 2008, HLF and five of its employees of fundraising activities for HLF shows that Mustapha were found guilty on 108 counts for funneling raised over $300,000 for the organization.5 money to Hamas through zakat (charity) committees in the Palestinian territories.1 Mustapha Mustapha confirmed his position with HLF during I 6 was not one of the five employees convicted, though he a 2004 civil deposition.
