“30 Mosques in 30 Day s” is a really neat project. It follows two young Muslims, Aman Ali and Bassam Tariq, as they chronicle New York City’s vibrant Muslim community. Every day during Ramadan they visit a different Mosque and break their fast with the Muslims there.

“As soon as we walked in the building our curiosity was immediately piqued by the soothing dhikr we heard on the loudspeaker. We slowly found our way to this large gathering inside the main prayer hall of people remembering Allah through some soothing dhikr. I should also mention this mosque is fairly hi-tech, they had a camera man working a switchboard broadcasting the feed in the prayer room to other areas of the building where the women were sitting.”
