The world we know unfortunately has been testing to say the least. In recent days we are being judged more and more by our race, religion, culture and social status. Neighborhood, communities are been divided and weaken by allowing Hate to flourish and having a platform for it to breed.
The world is forgetting the need for good neighbours near and far!
As an Muslim youth group, Green Stars based at Palmers Green Mosque understands the importance of neighbours and it is essential part in the community . Whether it is a neighbour on the street, our neighbour in our community – local or international -we have a strong responsibility towards them – to treat them kindly and serve them ‘generously!’
That is why we were so honored to invite our local scout neighbours from 6th Southgate to join us on our Monday sessions and be part of our activities. Our members ran activities that gave our neighbours an understanding of the Islamic faith which was both fun and educational.
The group took part in a fun Photobooth activity where they got to try on traditional Islamic clothing and capture memories in our Photobooth. The other activity taught the group about Arabic writing, where they got to paint their names in Arabic on tiles. They invited to see how we pray and see how the mosque functions.
These events are so important to remind the world that we can be united and that Hate can never win when there is opportunities for peace and hope!
“No slave of Allah has true faith unless he likes for his neighbour what he likes for himself”
