Soon after moving into their new building, (New mosque in South Meriden, CT) Husain said the members went out into the neighborhood to introduce themselves and present residents with a small gift (chocolates), which is their custom.

The mosque's name, Baitul Aman, means "House of Peace" in Arabic. A large sign outside the mosque displays the motto "Love for All, Hatred for None" and is reflective of the community's gentle philosophy.

"The mosque's name, Baitul Aman, means "House of Peace" in Arabic."

I'd like to check that out, but I can't find a translating dictionary in anglicized Arabic - they all go directly to Arabic script.
