If the imam is as wise as the religious leader in the Canadian sitcom Little Mosque on the Prairie, it will be a huge step up. Mosque committees share their burden of responsibility too.

I do not suggest that he ought to have done, of course. I simply note that this absence is glaring, and his religious silence is deafening.
