Inside everything was well organized. The prayer rows were neat the carpets clean and the sound system clear with microphones and mounted speakers. A digital prayer timing board helped worshippers keep track of prayer times. Shelves filled with Qur’ans and religious books showed that the mosque is also a place of learning not just prayer.

A Special Spiritual Moment
Question 04:
Is there any special moment or experience?
One of the most touching moments during my visit was seeing people sitting quietly after prayer deeply engaged in Qur’an recitation and personal supplication. In a city full of noise traffic and daily stress the mosque felt like a calm and peaceful refuge.
i spent a few minutes siting on the prayer carpet reflecting on how places like thes help people reconect with themselve and with Allah. it reminded me that mosquese are not just buildings but emotionall and spirituaal shilltters for urban communitis.
