SUMMARY:Visit San Antonio Masjid
DESCRIPTION:Visit San Antonio Masjid  We will meet at 10:45 am in the churc
 h parking lot and carpool to the Masjid. We will tour the masjid and our h
 osts will explain some aspects of the structure. A presentation on their c
 ommunity describing their lifestyle\, culture and characteristics will fol
 low.\n\nShoes must be left outside. A scarf for women is strongly recommen
 ded.\n\nThe Dawoodi Bohras are a Muslim community of about 1.2-1.3M and ou
 r spiritual leader is HH Dr. Syedna Mufaddal SaifuddinTUS who has a perman
 ent residence in Mumbai\, India. Our diaspora is nearly worldwide\, from S
 ingapore to San Francisco\, and from London to Sydney\, with large concent
 rations in India\, Pakistan\, East Africa\, and the Middle East. In the U.
 S.\, we number about 10\,000 with 2\,500 in CA where we have 6 centers.\n\
 nThe community lifestyle and culture characteristics are epitomized by edu
 cation (women and men)\, family unit\, civic responsibilities\, respect fo
 r others\, and societal investments in educational institutions\, food ser
 vices\, hospitals\, housing\, and ecology. We are patriotic to the country
  that we reside in and live in harmony with other communities. Alcohol\, d
 rugs\, tobacco\, and such indulgences are prohibited in our culture and li
 festyle. A unique characteristic we have is to start a business (become en
 trepreneurs). Regarding the importance of education\, our imam (Fatimid Em
 pire) in the 10th century started the first university\, Al Azhar Universi
 ty\, in Cairo\, Egypt\, which flourishes today. \n\nIn Silicon Valley\, o
 ur local community organization was established in 2000 and we have a cong
 regation of 400 including 100 children. Our local professional demographic
 s are primarily in technology with other disciplines such as medicine\, ar
 chitecture\, law\, political science\, and business. HH Syedna Mufaddal Sa
 ifuddinTUS inaugurated our masjid (mosque) on San Antonio Rd in Palo Alto
