    Default Mass Muslim Prayer Rally Planned For Capitol Hill on September 25

    The objective of this gathering is to invite the Muslim Communities and friends of Islam to express and illustrate the wonderful diversity of Islam.

    The Athan will be chanted on Capitol Hill, echoing off of the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument and other great edifices that surround Capitol Hill
    Thousands of Muslims from all races, creeds, colors and ethnicities will gather for the sole purpose of prayer

    Guess the Capitol will be safe from any bombings that day.

    Hmm it will be interesting to hear how well "death to the infidels!" echoes.

    Will there be an all Christian faith one the next week or is that illegal?

    I look forward to their open support of Israel, and their renouncement of all the backwards-looking, steppin fetchit Islamist regimes that this government has created over the past 30 years.

    Should be a glorious day.

    but do you?

    Of course it is not illegal and there have been many many prayer services on the national mall and other public places over the years.

    It's what makes this country great.

    Yeah, I meant to add the word now on the end.

    I don't really have a problem with religious faith types, regardless of which faction it is, until they have a problem with my lack thereof.

    Thanks, Kandace.

    Someone told me about this at the ISNA confrence in July and I totally forgot. I may end up attending the prayer.

    Yes, but will the left be condemning this as they certainly would an open gathering of Christians?

    Of course not.

    Will the Christians be attending en-mass to convert this large collection of un-saved souls?

    If they tried that, which side do you think would resort to violence first?

    The Easter Sunrise service has been held on the National Mall for over thirty years. It is done near the Lincoln Memorial. Presumably if it was done near the Capitol, it would be legal.

    The far-right can't seem to decide if Obama is an Atheist or a Muslim. I wish they'd make up their minds.
