Masjid
Al Quraan like Masjid Al Islam also follows the Warith Deen Muhammad tradition
of Islam which is identical to the Sunni tradition. Unfortunately the Mosque
was closed; they are open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday Iftaar, but not every
day. The Mosque gate was locked.
Unlike all other Mosques, the Qur'aan lessons are shared prior to Iftaar. When I visited the Masjid two years ago for Iftaar, this was my observation.
Imam Muhammad Shakoor was speaking and asking the men and women sitting around the tables to read verses from Sura 22 titled Hajj and then he would ask questions and then responds to them. It was quite an interactive session. By the way, there is no separation of men and women in this mosque, all gather around to discuss Quran.

Imam Shakoor is relaxed and packs humor in his
talk. I enjoyed the way he was talking about how the Shaitaan attacks ... from
the front, back, left and right... and from every where... he was literally
doing the chicken dance and it sure was fun to see the Imam with a life.
He talked about patience as a virtue, and referred to 9:32, 6;122-125 and several other verses. He also shared the story of Samson and Delilah and Adam in this context. Where they were given bountiful and were asked to stay away from one item... and they did not, like wise God asks us not to rush to conclusions until all facts are in; patience is the virtue.

"The world talks about worldly talks as far as they could do. However, it is Imam Mahdi who knows the secrets of Lail-tul-qadr (the night of honor). And without unraveling Lail-tul-qadr, why and how will the Koran be demystified? [Holy Sanandh 20:50]"
(Author’s Note: Keep in mind that Lail-tul-qadr or the night of honor is not exactly an Earthly night. Actually, it is the time period that started right from the advent of Ruh Allah and continued till the completion of the revelation of the words of Marifaat by Imam Mahdi himself and continued on for some more years. And the time period which is Lail-tul-qadr is 120 years.
And the night of honor is said to be better than thousand months because 120 years is greater than 83 years and 4 months!! To be precise, the night of honor is simply the time period between 990 Hijri years and 120 Gregorian years following 990 Hijri year. And it is to be noted that millions of Muslims around the world are still searching for the night of honor out of ignorance of the fact of the arrival of the listed following during the period of those 120 years as: –
1. Rasul Muhammed
2. Isa Ruh Allah
3. Imam Mahdi
4. Israfil angel
5. Jibril angel
6. Satan
7. Mummins (the spirits of Lahut) and
8. Muttaqins (who are referred to as the angelic spirits according to the noble Quran)
There is a belief in the Islamic community that the 27th night of Ramdan is generally Lail-tul-qadr or the night of honor. But it is not so!)
