“Just six days ago, my village was struck by a drone, in an attack that terrified thousands of simple, poor farmers.
“The drone strike and its impact tore my heart, much as the tragic bombings in Boston last week tore your hearts and also mine.
“What radicals had previously failed to achieve in my village, one drone strike accomplished in an instant: there is now an intense anger and growing hatred of America.”

Dear friends,
I greet you, invoking God’s peace and blessings upon you:
Friday’s are special for me because at the ISBCC I get to see the fabric of our community. One of my favorites is seeing our security staff early in the morning, smiling and greeting everyone who walks in. Br. Muhammad Ubai always asks me, “Did you get that 5 mile jog in today, brother Imam?” Second, but close, is getting hugs from Sr. Malika’s granddaughters, whose smiles bring so much light to my office.
From the official Imam Suhaib Webb Facebook page:
ATTENTION: https://www.facebook.com/Imam.webb
The above facebook page is being used to commit fraud in my name, he is using this page to solicit money and donations. I have filed a police report, but he continues to solicit donations. Please spread the word and do not support this person. He even falsified documents, claiming to represent the ISBCC and my assistant. He has asked for over 500k from folks and has hurt others. Inshallah he will be exposed and brought to justice. I need help to expose this fraud.
This is the ONLY OFFICIAL facebook page for Imam Suhaib Webb.

This is crazy. The Facebook profile “facebook.com/Imam.webb” is a fake and has been used to collect donations under Imam Suhaib Webb’s name. What goes through the mind of someone to do this I really do not know. I hope this person is caught and stopped. If you are friends with this account or have any mutual friends please let them know to de-friend them.
The U.S. has bought $70,000 worth of air time on seven Pakistani television channels to air an ad showing President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton denouncing the anti-Islamic video that has sparked violent protests in the Middle East and North Africa. (source)
Shaykh Yasir Qadhi:
Clerics and leaders who instigate Muslims to ‘defend the honor of the Prophet (saw)’ by attacking people who have nothing to do with insulting his honor, actually disrespect the memory of our Prophet (saw).
Yes, the movie was disgusting, but I’m sure the happiest person today is the person who made it, because his goal of smearing the Muslims has succeeded.
For how long will we tolerate such stupidity? (source)
Shaykh Abu Eesa Niamatullah:
I condemn it because the religion of Islam doesn’t allow such an action. Common sense and a call to revise sensibilities clearly have failed with such people. So we have to focus on the only thing that might speak out to them: their religion. These militiamen have not just insulted themselves, but they’ve insulted their Prophet, the same Prophet who stated authentically and unequivocally, “Whoever kills a person who is granted protection by the Muslims shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise even though its fragrance can be smelt from a distance of forty years of travelling.” (Source)

“Enough is enough.”
Seems like Canada is about 5 years behind the United States with a extremist Salafi problem.
From CAIR Chicago:
On August 16, 2012, a Palestinian American man went to pay respects to his deceased father at Evergreen Cemetery and was horrified to see anti-Muslim hate graffiti on a number of Muslim graves. Evergreen Cemetery is home to at least 500 Muslim graves. Cemetery officials and the police have been notified. The cemetery is located at 3401 West 87th Street, Evergreen Park, IL 60805.
Of all the attributes of Ramadan, patience is one of them. We are patient during the day when we have no food. We are patient in night when we sleep less and pray more. Now we have to be patient with the onslaught of hate crimes and the increase in Islamophobia by our ignorant American neighbors.
Dates are when the incident occurred:
