In Memoriam: Alwiya Mohamed

Will Perry represents the men of the masjid for us today and boy is he gracious about it because we really dug into him: Where are all the men when it comes to DV in the Muslim community? Good news! The urban legend of the Muslim American Posse is well and alive, so sisters, you have your soldiers available to you if you’re willing to call on them. Brothers, build more posses.Unique POV we gain from Brother Will who takes us upstream to remind Muslim men, and in many cases teach for the first time, their role as protectors of women in Islam (if you want to scream, “We don’t need protection,” please relax and take a decaf. No bigger feminists than us here). MIDC works with many middle aged men who have never been married and have to re enter the ummah after decades of incarceration and trauma that fuels the dysfunction of some marriages. This happens to Muslim and non Muslim FYI.How do we prevent another Muslim mom from dying when we can prevent it?  Find out what MIDC is doing and help them continue this work through the community’s trauma after Alwiya's untimely death, and ask how to support the affected family. May Allah SWT grant her the highest level and protect her daughter from any harm seen or unseen.
