The Musjid was always the place where the Ummah, the nation of Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) gathered and met. The action that united them and caused them to gather was salaah. When the Ummah has moved away from its course, the meeting place has now become halls and malls, parks and grounds. The reason for their meeting has become food and eating, sport and outing. The Ummah has to once again come back to the Musjid and come back towards salaah in order to enjoy the past glory of Islam. There is no need to re-invent the wheel or to invent some modern–day Islam. Our Islam has been moving and advancing for centuries. It is for us to place our shoulder to the wheel of Islam and allow our lives to move and advance.
