Coming together in support of Community
There was an incident of arson fire at the Islamic Society of New Tampa (Daarus Salaam Mosque) last night. Law enforcement is at the scene. No one was hurt, Alhumdulillah(God Bless), but there is property damage to the building.

Stand with us as we raise money for the mosque and continue to promote interfaith events and dialog with our neighbors. This community has held several events for outreach and the money will double down our efforts to ensure love, empathy, and compassion are instilled.
We are reaching out to the community with a reward for information that leads to the arrest of the arsonist.
The beginning of the Daaru Salaam Mosque Premises: Organic Growth
Over ten years ago, a small group of Muslims gathered in their homes to pray together. After awhile, they needed more space to accommodate a growing community and purchased this property featuring an existing building that was used as a mosque for several years. Now they've built a much more suited mosque space that meets the needs of their community effectively.
It's this space of that has now been damaged in this arson attack.
On their website, they have this quote:
"Let us not forget that we are all members of the same human fraternity; our differences are meant to be embraced; our diversity should become our strength if we wholeheartedly commit ourselves to get to know each other because, as Allah has made clear, we are all descendants of one man and one woman."
From a community announcement earlier: Islamic Society of New Tampa informed it's congregants, that, " Law enforcement has declared the mosque building a crime scene; due to the ongoing investigation, there will be no Friday prayer at the mosque today. However, all regular prayers will be held in the old mosque building."

Greetings of peace from your Muslim friends and neighbors,

A Note of Thanks...
Good Evening,
I wanted to personally take a moment to thank each and everyone who has taken time to donate to this cause. When bigotry strikes, our human reaction is to be upset and saddened by the criminal act. That said, tonight I’m here to say with your support we are standing tall against the hatred and division that has crept into our great nation.
Our immediate goals are to rebuild the mosque, improve on security, and ensure a reward for the capture of the criminal. Our long term goal is to increase empathy, compassion, love, and understanding in our community and in our city towards our fellow brothers in sisters, regardless of faith. Love does conquer fear.
I also wanted to thank our team members Rabbi Alana Suskin and Debi Vans Evers from our Jewish faith who sought me out to join the campaign against hate. The response has been emotionally overwhelming and I cannot thank them enough for spreading the word for support.
We have started the process of rebuilding and are already planning our first community outreach program to be held within the next week. Thank you again for standing alongside us in our time of need.
Warm Regards,
Adeel Karim
New Tampa Community Member
