Today there was a shooting at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee, and early reports are that seven people are dead.

This details of this horrific tragedy are yet to emerge in full, but is is possible that the Sikhs were targeted for their visual similariity to Muslims.

Since this is Ramadan, and the power of our prayers are amplified in this holy month, let us all make special dua tonight for the Sikh community in Wisconsin and nationwide.
