The Jew in the Mosque:
The Story of How an Orthodox Jew Came to Own North America’s Largest Islamic Food Company
David J. Muller tells the story of how a request for halal offal eventually led to the largest Islamic food company in North America.
Although I cannot prove it, there is probably no Jew in America who has been in more mosques than I have – no Jew who has been in more imams’ homes than I have. I have also attended dozens of Islamic conferences and conventions, and even spoken at some. And because of this unique opportunity I have had, there are probably few Jews who have had a chance to get as close a view of Islam in North America as I have.
I once was asked to give a speech at a mosque in Mississauga, Ontario, on the topic of “How Al Safa Came To Be.” After the speech a woman I had never met before came up to me and said, “Mr. Muller – I really like you. I hate Jews, but I really like you. And by the way, you’re the first Jew I have ever met.” When I came home that night, I said to my wife that I had a very successful day. She asked me why, and I responded, “Well, there is now at least one Muslim person in the Greater Toronto Area who likes 100% of the Jews that she has ever met.”
I can’t prove it, but I would venture to say that there is no Jew in North America who has been in more mosques than I have, or in more imams’ homes than I have.
This book is my attempt to convey how it came to be that I was speaking in a mosque, and so much more.
It was a memorable time in my life. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have enjoyed putting it together.
