Remind me I wrote this tomorrow, when you catch me inadvertently glaring at a child making noise in the masjid during Tarawih. — PolitiTweet.org

We went though and we still go. We go frequently and voluntarily. Alhamdulillah. That’s the point. Building these habits, like second nature is hard work. Everything worth having though is hard work. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
It would have been easier not to go so often. We could have kept a strict bedtime, whined about something else, and my parents could have worshipped at home. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
Some days we wanted to go, and other days we didn’t. Some days we were well behaved, and other days we ran around like circus animals. As if this weren’t enough, they’d also go without us. They led by example. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
We also went for social events and celebrations, our own and our friends. One of the Quran class students finished reading the Quran? The party was at the masjid. Somebody passed away, the memorial was at the masjid. We have the day off from school? We’d go to the masjid! — PolitiTweet.org

My parents chose the masjid as a central location in our childhood, and they took us there all the time for masjid things and random things too. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
In Ramadan, we attended Maghrib and Iftar, and then stayed for Isha and Tarawih. When we could muster the strength, we’d join my dad for Tahajjud, Suhoor, and Fajr too. We didn’t just go to Eid prayers, we came back at night for the potluck party! — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
Monday through Thursday, we went to learn to read and then memorize the Quran. On Friday and/or Saturday we went for Jummah or other community events. On Sundays, we attended and then later taught at Sunday school. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
They put in a team effort. We prayed in the men’s room and the women’s room. Mind you, this was before parental rooms, decent restrooms, or anything of that sort. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
Both of my parents took us to the masjid six days each week for much of our childhood. Some days it was my mom, other days it was my dad, and other days it was both of them. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s worth it though and so necessary. — PolitiTweet.org
Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo
It’s hard. It’s so hard. It’s hard when you’re tired. It’s hard when they don’t want to go. It’s even harder when you do take them to the masjid and then they’re loud and people are rude about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Talking to this beautiful community about @CAIRSFBA’s work tonight. Their repeated “ameeen” when I shared that the most important thing they could do was to make dua for us made the long windy drive worth it. — PolitiTweet.org
