Muslims @ capitol "because we love America."
A mosque in Elizabeth, New Jersey, is planning to host a "Day of Islamic Unity" on Friday, September 25 outside the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Billed as the first event of its kind, the occasion is described by organizers as prayer for Muslims and friends of Islam.
According to the Washington Post event organizer Hassen Abdellah said, "Most of the time, when Muslims go to Washington, D.C., they go there to protest some type of event.... This is not a protest. Never has the Islamic community prayed on Capitol Hill for the soul of America. We're Americans. We need to change the face of Islam so people don't feel every Muslim believes America is 'the great Satan,'
because we love America."
because we love America."
because we love America."
