Muslims in Surrey, Canada, are set to benefit from a major new development after city officials approved plans for a new mosque and a 38-storey residential tower. The project will transform the current Masjid Al-Noor site into a larger Islamic centre with expanded space for worship and community activities, alongside 373 new homes. Supporters say the initiative will help meet the needs of a growing Muslim population while strengthening the mosque’s role as a community hub for future generations.

Everyone is chasing peace.

Better jobs. Less stress. More comfort. More control.

But the heart will never find lasting peace away from its Creator.

Allah is As-Salam — the Source of peace.

From Ankara to Istanbul to Madrid.

Talent mattered. Hard work mattered. But above all, the plan of Allah was unfolding.

Injuries. Doubts. Competition. Still, he kept going.

A reminder: what is written for you will never miss you.

I left Colombia over fifteen years ago, working multiple jobs just to give my family a better future in the U.S. But for a long time, it felt like I was losing the battle.

One of my sons had dropped out of school and spent his nights drinking and looking for trouble.
The other was serving a two-year sentence in jail.

I was desperate. I didn't know what to do.

One morning, he came home. He smelled like ci******es and alcohol, but something in his face was different.
He sat on his bed and told me: "Mom, I have to give up drinking. It is not good."

I was happy—it’s what I had prayed for—but I didn't realize that was just the beginning of a massive change.
He stopped drinking, and started hanging out with a new friend—a man who wore white clothes and a small skullcap.
One night, they sat at my dinner table and talked about God, Jesus, and the Virgin Mary.
My son suddenly revealed to me the truth: He had become a Muslim.

I’ll be honest, I was shocked. I thought, "Weren't Muslims terrorists?"
I was so overwhelmed I told them both to leave. Usually, I prayed to the Holy Mary, but this time felt different. For the first time, I talked directly to God and asked Him for help.

I watched my son. He was peaceful. He didn't fight anymore. I realized that while many "religious" people I knew still did bad things, Islam had actually changed my son into a good person.

When Jorge returned home after a few days, he hugged me like never before. He explained the Oneness of God and that Jesus was a Prophet. Half a year later, I followed him, and accepted Islam.
When my other son got out of prison, he saw the change and joined us too.

Through Islam, God gave me back family and saved them from the destruction of the streets.
He returned us all to His Straight Path.
