Goodness still on the rise at 2011 Muslim Convention

September 4th · 1 Comment · Imam W. Deen Mohammed, Islam

“…the best thing that came out of it is a sincere, conscious effort to understand Muslims better.” While our mass media shamefully stereotype Muslims as Arabs, kudos to South Town Star reporter Steve Metsch for his perceptive “10 years after 9/11?” question during yesterday’s news conference, here in Chicago, at the 2011 edition of the […]

August 25th · 2 Comments · Imam W. Deen Mohammed, Islam, Muslim, Ramadan

New Medinah’s 25th: Mississippi Muslim milestone

June 2nd · Comments Off on New Medinah’s 25th: Mississippi Muslim milestone · Imam W. Deen Mohammed, Islam, Muslim
