Ullal Thangal laid the foundation stone for Masjid-ul Aathar (Shahre Mubarak Masjid)
Religious leader and Samastha Kerala Jamiyyathul Ulama (AP faction) president Sayyed Abdurahiman Al-bukhari Ullal laid the foundation stone for Masjid-ul Aathar (Shahre Mubarak Masjid) during an international religious conference at Swapna Nagari here on Monday.
The foundation stone for the Islamic Heritage Museum, to be set up close to the mosque, was laid by religious scholar Ahammed Muhammed Al-Khazraji from Abu Dhabi.
Thousands of people from different parts of the State and outside gathered at the venue to witness the stone-laying ceremony of the mosque-museum complex, being established under the aegis of the Markazu Ssaquafathi Ssunniyya, the Sunni Cultural Centre here.
Religious leaders and scholars from different countries, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Yemen, and Sri Lanka, besides representatives of Sunni organisations from across the country, attended the programme.
Sunni leader and Markaz general secretary A.P. Aboobacker Musaliar called upon Sunni workers and believers to unite for peace and practice real Islam without being distracted by dissuaders or those who created controversies for wrong reasons. “Prophet Mohammed is our leader and let us practice in our life what he has shown us through his life,” he said.
He emphasised the importance of peaceful coexistence in a pluralistic society.
“Love and peaceful coexistence should be central to our social and spiritual life,” he said.
The mosque, big enough to accommodate nearly 25,000 people, is being built with public participation and is expected by its sponsors to become a landmark as hair believed to be that of Prophet Mohammed will be kept in the museum in the complex.
Markaz general manager C. Muhammed Faizi welcomed the gathering. Sayyed Abdul Azeez Jaleel Bagdadi from Makkah, Fareed Kammeni from Medina, Sayyed Muhammed Mihllar from Yemen spoke.
