ADAMS Center has been organizing Juma' and Taraweeh prayers at the Reston Synagogue for quite some time and will also hold the next Eidul Adha prayers there.   They have also been holding prayers in churches in the area.  Would it not be wonderful if all Muslims realize that our neighbors will be friends if we take them as friends and learn to reciprocate the kindness the Jews and Christians have been showing to us?  May Allah help us all.  Sultan Ahmad Vienna, Virginia -- Wahed Hossaini ElderHossaini@ gmail.com 703-451-7942
