Hadley Mall Fire has repercussions throughout the local Muslim Community

The fire that raced through the Casablanca Halal Market and destroyed hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of quick-lighting long-burning charcoals, hookahs, pipes, tobacco, and goat meat, according to owners Hassan Oulbeid and Mohamed Keffas, has also touched Muslims throughout the valley and as far away as Boston.

Most of the livelihoods destroyed in the fire were non-Muslim, but the tragedy has repercussions throughout the tightly knit Muslim community as well.

Please give generously and support these pillars of the local Islamic community, all pious followers of the Koran and Sunnah, the sayings and practices of Mohammad.

“We scratched every penny, every dime to build this," said Mohamed Keffas. 

The fire began just after Mohamed Keffas (L) had closed Sunday evening, and he assured Hassan Oulbeid that none of the hookahs, charcoals, or tobacco products that they stockpile were still burning.

Casablanca Halal Market owner Hassan Oulbeid and his accomplice Mohamed Keffas also operate a successful taxi business in Easthampton with Hassan's family, Brahim and Lanhen Oulbeid.

Islamic community decries bombings

April 24, 2013

The members of the Islamic Society of Western Massachusetts extend their heartfelt condolences, support, and prayers to the victims and families of all those affected by the horrific and senseless act of terrorism that took place at the Boston Marathon. 

We ask the All-Merciful God to give strength and patience to all those who lost loved ones, suffered injuries, and were traumatized in any way. We pray that He guide everyone to His path of peace, justice, and mercy.

There is absolutely no justification for such a heinous act. Such acts must be condemned by people of all faiths, regardless of who turns out to be the perpetrator. We commend our law enforcement agencies for their prompt response to this tragedy. We have full confidence in their due diligence and expertise to bring the guilty to justice as quickly as possible. Whoever committed this crime must be prosecuted to the full extent of the law so that closure may be brought to this tragedy and healing may begin.

We ask all members of our community to join together in prayer for the quick recovery of those injured. As a community, we stand together with our fellow citizens and residents of the great state of Massachusetts, to assist the victims in any way we can.

– MOHAMMAD ALI HAZRATJI, MD, President

Muslims in the Valley -

This month Switchboard online magazine is featuring a series of interesting articles by Noor Anwar called "Muslims in the Valley."

Resentment rising in Amherst - mobile Halal food cart avoids burdensome NY regulations

The problem from the Chamber’s point of view is that these food vendors can enter the Amherst marketplace simply by paying a $100 fee to the health department for inspections, securing a state peddler’s permit and getting approval from the Select Board.

No pesky regulations like in NY regarding USDA inspection, hand washing, meat refrigeration, mixing and storage of other food products, explosive canister storage, blocking the sidewalk, hot oil fryers, splattering grills, and knives and meat cleavers just inches from passerbys... and Hampshire mosque's director, Javeria Mir, can make sure they meet all the requirements of the town.

2012 Ramadan surprise?

As Ramadan 2012 approaches (July 20) Western Massachusetts residents are anxiously awaiting invitations to Hampshire mosque's annual "Ramadan Ritual."

In previous years the Sunni supporters of Hampshire mosque,  Fethullah Gulen missionaries, and local dhimmis from Joan Lindeman's ION group have reached out to include  the community in Ramadan festivities, so this year everyone is again anxiously looking forward to see what kind of Ramadan surprise they have planed for us.

Perhaps the Turks were a little upset when they had to 'submit' to Jewish dietary restrictions last year at the JCC; or maybe women like Naz Mohamad are tired of ISWM supporters like Dr. Bajwa, Kamran Bajwa, and the other Islamists who condone Dr. Hazratji's call to violent jihad in Amherst, hiding behind them.

Is there a Ramadan surprise planned for us in 2012?
