The community @GtownMasjid has been cultivated upon the Qurʿan and Sunnah over many years, showing growth upon growth, to the point of purchasing a school academy building, a women's shelter and now the purchase of a church to convert into a new large multistorey masjid to accommodate the growing community. This process requires patient dedication by students of knowledge who have spent 20-30 years steadfast upon spreading the Book and the Sunnah and repelling innovation and its figureheads. It is not established by individuals who spent 20-30 year drifting from one place to the other, moaning, groaning and lamenting their missed opportunities to secure "the bag". The selfless example of the great scholars like Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī, who established tawḥīd across Yemen, developing an institute of learning that produced countless students of knowledge, patiently over decades, was done without seeking "the bag" and without venting about his worth on a YouTube channel, are well worth emulating. May Allāh make our efforts sincere in his cause. To Him is our return.
