Good luck on a good initiative!” Makhambet Dosmukhambetov said.
The chairman of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Kazakhstan, Chief Mufti Nauryzbay kazhy Taganuly noted that the mosque is not just a building for prayers, but a sacred place designed to promote our traditions, the unity of the country, and harmony in society. Traditionally, the mosque, in addition to religious values, promotes charity. Expressing confidence that the mosque under construction will become a center of spiritual attraction for the population, for God-pleasing deeds, the mufti gave his blessing.
The mosque is being built at the request of the villagers, at the expense of a local entrepreneur. Construction is expected to be completed and the facility will be operational within one year. The mosque will have rooms for reading the Koran, sermons, male and female prayer halls. It is also planned to set up a dining room and a house for the imam near the mosque.
