“I think there is part of me that felt some sort of kinship in this,” she said.

About 500 followers of Imam-San from around the country came to this village of wooden houses and mango trees to celebrate the opening of the new mosque.

Sem Ahmad, 57, said he wanted the Lightman family to help build a mosque in his village in Battambang Province.

But Lightman said this would be his “first and last” mosque, because “I don’t think I have the resources or the time to build more mosques.”
