Today at the Fajr (dawn prayer) at the Dar Al-Tawheed Islamic Centre in Mississauga, our congregants were subject to a violent attack.
An individual came wielding an ax and carrying numerous other sharp edged weapons, as well as pepper spray. (1/3

I'm told they shot him in the back. Then they hopped in their tactical van and drove off.
The man was a regular in the local masjid, and while he suffered from schizophrenia, he was non-violent. This is unconscionable.
