A sombre mood prevailed as members of Saskatoon’s Ahmadiyya Muslim community entered the Baitur Rehmat Mosque in Saskatoon for a prayer gathering to honour the Humboldt Broncos on Friday.
Walking by flags lowered to half-staff and a row of hockey sticks leaning against the front of the building, youth congregation members wore vests they designed in tribute to the Broncos, while others wore pins emblazoned with Ahmadiyya’s slogan: Love for all, hatred for none.
Saskatoon imam Shakoor Ahmad said the tragedy, which killed 16 people when the Humboldt Broncos’ bus collided with a transport truck on April 6, has shaken the Muslim community.
“Our heart goes out to those who are affected. We want to show our support, (however) we can.”
