What are your thoughts on Islamic Centers specifically for Latino Muslims?
When you revert to Islam, you understand what comes with this change. Many times our families turn their backs away. So the only family you have left is your Muslim family. When people at the masjid are not giving you a salaam — your god-given right — you don’t feel welcome.
Many people have experienced this and more. It is very sad, but it has happened to me. I’m not the type of person to say no for an answer so I still talk to them and try harder. But not a lot of people think like that so they get discouraged. Here we hear a lot of stories of sisters leaving Islam due to this kind of behavior.
We don’t want this happening any longer, so IslamInSpanish Centro Islamico is a home away from home. It is that second home.
If everybody else is closing the door on you, you will not be able to come there without being judged. There will be tranquility and peace — the same reasons why they decided to embrace Islam. This center will bring that all together again.
???? great news, salaam.
By embracing Islam, Hispanics are reclaiming the history of Al-Andalus, taken away from them by force, stripped from them by slavery and imperialism. They will once again contribute to the next Golden Age of Islam.
Inshallah..!
Maybe, if Islam had not violently invaded Spain in year 711, it would not have been expelled. In fact, muslims subjugated Visigoths and Hispanic-Romans living there. So, who is to blame firstly?
No imperialism, no myths and no lying: they all were sons of their time. It is stupid to judge something that happened 500 years ago with a modern mind-set.
” if Islam had not violently invaded Spain in year 711, it would not have been expelled.”
How far back do you want to go on that? Cain and Abel?
Allahu Akbar! May Allah bless our Latino ummah.
Alhamdulillah I had a chance to attend the the historic grand opening of Islam in Spanish. I posted a video on YouTube if you want to take a look at it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-rWhDn9F_0

I also posted a clip of Brandon, a Jehova’s Witness who drove from Dallas to Houston and spent 3 days and 3 nights painting a mural at the entrance of the center. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fHHCG_MmgQ
Ma’sha’allah, this is so so awesome! Praying for the center’s continued success as well as all related efforts!
