As night settles over Dearborn, the call to prayer echoes around the Islamic Institute of Knowledge, a large mosque in the north of this Michigan city in the northeastern United States. This Sunday, October 22, its imam, Abdul Latif Berry, is organizing a vigil to draw attention to the plight of the children of Gaza. Around thirty people, brandishing photos of babies, signs and Palestinian flags, took place around him, in the parking lot of the institution. “We are far […] but we, people of faith, must stand up to denounce the deaths of young innocent people.”
