Million Muslim March (MMM)

After the events (raids by FBI on innocent muslims in Maryland and Virginia area) that took place a few days ago, don't you think its time to assemble and protest against this hatred.  Could you imagine if we did this...It would probably be the Multi-Million Muslim March (MMMM).  It is time that we organize and stand up for our supposed rights in America.  We can't keep sitting around and do nothing.  We need to organize and get past our differences.  We need to organize and help out our umma across seas, in other countries.  Its time that we help out our brothers and sisters, and stop thinking about ourselves.  The Million Muslim March would give us an oppurtunity to do some much, if we are willing to unite.

Would this be something that is feasible?  If it is feasible, what would it take to get something like this organized?

As-salaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah -
Bring your idea up to ISNA, MSA National, ICNA, whatever.
One of the largest Muslim gatherings in the US is the ISNA conference during Labor Day wkd.  There are a few more conferences happening before then.  May be the best time to get everyone to march, and to publicize it, too.

The Million Muslim March wasn't my idea.  It is an idea that is floating around, I just happened to hear about.  Anyway, why don't we here at Jannah.org try to get something started though.  It could be like our side project.  Trying to make this idea into a reality.  Every member on the board that would like to participate (Insha Allah everybody would participate) could play a role in this.  Maybe with enough support and organization we could have several Million Muslim March's going on simultaneously in different countries in the world.  Why limit it to the United States alone.  This would hopefully show that we are able to look past our minor differences and realize that we are each muslims submitting to the will of Allah and unite against hatred in order to improve our umma as a whole.  I hope I am not getting ahead of myself here  :).  Islamic organizations, websites, stores, etc. would have to unite in order to spread this idea and gather support.  But I think this would be well worth the try.  We will continue to be weak until we unite.

I'm all for it, i think it would be awesome if hundreds of thousands of muslims marched on the streets of the USA.

Who would be interested in trying to do something like this.  It takes alot of people, time and effort.  This is not something that can be done with only a hand full of people.  We would need to work together.  We have over 300 members at this message board.  It would be great if at least 2/3[sup]rd[/sup] of the members would help to make this into reality.  And if those in the 2/3[sup]rd[/sup] got there friends and family to help.  And if those family and friends got there friends and family involved.  And so on and so on...

Don't let this be just another topic on this message board.  Lets make this the beginning of something more...
