some people are still traumatized after a terror attack. However, Lateef said more people go to the mosque to attend Friday prayers than before the attack.

“The wound is very, very deep, but we can’t let evil take all the goodness. We are all together. The community is getting stronger every day.” Lateef said.

The New Zealand government placed two armed police officers stationed at the entrance of the mosque since the March 15 attack and will remain during the month of Ramadan.

The Lindwood Mosque seeks to provide peace to the Muslim community and also guests to visit this mosque, especially during Ramadan.
