Too many Americans do not know a Muslim and it is very easy to fear something that you know very little about. We believe the best way to approach this problem is through dialogue.

Friday Sept. 15th members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community arrived at the Baitul Ehsan Mosque in Monroe, Washington to find that explicit graffiti had been painted on the side our mosque. Part of the graffiti had been painted over by another color of paint along with an expletive.
The original part of the graffiti is no longer legible, but we suspect that it was likely a derogatory term. It is not known whether it was put there with hateful intent or if it was just mischievous teens having “fun” at someone else’s expense.
There has been a dramatic increase in hate crimes of the past few years and many mosques have been vandalized throughout the country, ranging from graffiti to arson. Along with the attacks on mosques have been attacks on people which have also dramatically increased, in some cases innocent people are killed.
