Newly appointed imam aims to serve all people

Posted January 18, 2014 4:00 am

It is unfortunate that Islam is a misunderstood religion. As a practicing Muslim living in America, I feel it is my responsibility to clear these misconceptions. To do so, I have dedicated my life for the service of God and mankind.

I have recently been assigned as the imam (a title for a Muslim religious minister) for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community of Zion. Our mosque is located on 2103 Gabriel Ave., Zion. Prophet Muhammad has taught us to serve God and serve those living in our communities, our neighbors, our elders and everyone in need of help. Therefore, I am here for the service of all Zion’s residents. As an imam, I hope to be a productive part of the city of Zion, and I look forward to being of assistance in serving the people of Zion.
