It seems the writer's entire life revolves around the Mosque and her fellow Mosque-goers...I'd be interested to know whether her family mixes socially with non-Muslims...and whether she would accept her child marrying outside of her faith and becoming an atheist.
I've worked with people of all faiths and philosophies, yet Muslims are strangely absent when a social event that isn't faith based occurs. 
Not that this atrocity is excusable, but If you refuse to assimilate you will always be seen as an outsider.
