TO GO ordering was really easy and fast. I really enjoyed my #1 which was pretty much a sampler of the popular items ( I imagine) - my favs were the spinach pie and kibbeh. The St Elias church is beautiful from an outside view; unfortunately, we did not go on a tour of the church. I look forward to attending this food festival again in the future.

I was glad that we ordered an extra spinach pie because that was the star of the dish as far as my wife and I were concerned. I really liked taking bites of kibbee and wrapping them in pita bread. A dont miss item that I want my Yelpers to know about is the ZLAYBAH! I saw the long line and I asked a worker about it. She said that it was incredible and it would run out in just a few hours and that a lady that has been making it for decades was making it with her secret recipe. I waited in line for 30 minutes for that and it was well worth it! Sitting outside was very nice and we had a great time listening to the band while we ate. I am looking forward to going back next year!

Every service was closed by singing the Old Irish Blessing (May the Road Rise to Meet You), which was one of the most touching moments of the service. They also have "the discipline of silence" a moment of absolute quiet during the service to collect, reflect and pray. My husband and I jokingly call this an Episcopal-style Baptist church: they follow the lectionary, wear traditional robes and think. The old pastor, Jim Evans, used to write a column for the Birmingham Post Herald (before it went under and he went to Auburn) and has since been replaced since we moved away from the area.

The first review saddens me. I would like to apologize to the brother. You are justified. I am…read morepersonally very sorry. Please inbox me and I can direct you to Muslims who can help. My dad sits over the board at the Tuscaloosa mosque. He taught me to never question a person in need. The reward is always given to the person who gives so there should have never been any questions. In addition, if he is talking about the school in Homewood IAA, he is right. I worked there for a year and it was truly awful in every way. It is an Arab cultural school and not an Islamic school. BIS should really purge the staff especially the principal and vice principal. Working there was the biggest mistake of my life. I was treated so disrespectfully there from everyone including staff and students. My dad forced me to quit because I was so depressed at how chaotic and undisciplined they are there. But this was in 2014-2015, almost 10 years ago. The people and students at IAA are very judgmental, racist, arrogant and rude. They are backwards to an uncanny degree. Super materialistic and obsessed with fancy cars, physical appearances and designer labels as well. Poor permissive parenting at its finest. Lots of unchecked behavior issues. But I learned a lot there. I don't recommend any Muslim family send their children to IAA. And for the love of Allah, never accept a job there. You will be underpaid and asked to teach multiple grade levels and you will cry every day like I did. You will be made to feel like a bad Muslim. You will be judged by every word and they will never take accountability for their mishandlings or for being wrong. Everything will be your fault. Truly the worst examples of Muslims I've ever encountered. Avoid. This is not geebah on my brothers and sisters or backbiting as we are allowed to discuss matters of business. Do not do business with IAA. But the weekend school and community at Hoover Crescent are decent. Hoover is constantly shifting. It is not stationary like the school in Homewood. My nephews attend the weekend school and it is very diverse. Most mosques change leadership every few years. This term's leaders have really focused on the youth. Although, I wish they had more programs for elder millennials like myself. The location is great. Parking is ample. Ramadan is mostly organized and the volunteers and staff are incredibly hard working and devoted at Hoover Crescent. Ramadan dinner is free and open to the public if anyone is interested in Islam. Don't judge the rest of us by the mess of IAA, the "Islamic" school in Homewood. Most of us are non affiliated with that place. Salam
