Masjid Bilal

Inauspicious, unassuming, humble. These are words that come to mind when I consider places like this mosque. And there are plenty of places of worship in Scarborough that are similar. They are not created from money or pride, rather from need and faith. They serve a purpose in their community. They serve those who care and love. And this place of prayer represents its kind appropriately, to the best of my knowledge, when I see the separate doors marked for Sisters and Brothers and the charity box out front to receive and help dispense alms. When one has faith, one can always give. St. Peter’s (in Rome) or Notre Dame (Paris) or Masjid al-Haram (Mecca) could never touch my heart the way this place does by its humility.
