Islamic Center of Passaic County (Paterson)

"MashaAllah Great Muslim center and good community."

"Im extremely dissapointed in praying the 27th night of taraweeh here. In hopes of attaining spiritual tranquility praying with congregation, it felt like i was at an AUCTION or a prosperity gospel church SubhanAllah! After Isha prayer the imam took over 1 hour 15 minutes gathering donations from the congregation. Starting the charity by encouraging to give minimum 1k. With the time passing towards the end asking to give $100, $50 , $20 with the majority of donations naming the person donating and giving Takbir. At the end auctioning off literally a gold neclace! There needs to be a better approach! You have dozens and dozens of charity links and posters all around the Mosque posted on the walls. You have donation ledgers that you can literally hand out to every single congregation attendee. Give a 10, 20, 30 minute lecture on the importance of charity and leave the people to decide what they want to give and dont waste 1h 15min with something that can be done in less than 30. " the left hand shouldn’t know that the right hand is doing ". Personally for me and a few brothers around me it ruined the spirituality of this significant night! By the time the charity speech was done i was tired, my mind wanderd off and annoyed i lost my peace of mind that i came with to pray taraweeh. It just seemed absurd. I just cant imagine this scene at the time of the Prophet s.a.w"
