Soofie masjid is an iconic masjid in South Africa. I frequented when in i lived there in my early 20s. However there are many other way more beautiful, larger, much older and modern mosques in South Africa today. But thank you for putting it up. I just wonder though how did you find it as it is a mosque in a very small town.
Masha Allah I am from India
Yeah Allah please I pray that you forgive the late GADDAFI the former president of Libya in any where that he went wrong because if it wasn't through him, we wouldn't be having GADDAFI NATIONAL MOSQUE in Uganda which name was changed due to some selfish reasons but ALHAMDU LILLAH we as Ugandan 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 muslims do still remember him for that and will continue praying for him

Mosques are not controversial buildings and Muslims in Africa are not just 450 million people. The predominant religion in Africa is Islam. Get your numbers correct sister.

THE MUSLIMS PLACE OF PRAYER IS KNOWN AS MASJID OR MOSQUE. Let us keep it simple & call MASJIDS. Because as ISLAM spread to many parts of the world ( they DID NOT like US ) . Simply, the whole world is made a place of PRAYER, TO PRAY TO ALLAH, GIVER LIFE TO CHILDREN OF ADAM & EVE. EARTH, PURE & CLEAN.MASJIDS ARE PLACES OF PROSTRATION TO ALLAH. A PLACE WHERE MUSLIMS PRAY ( Bows Down , as MOSES & other Holy people, before us did). ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING of MASJIDS CAN ONLY BE ENGINEERED BY those who truly are RIGHTEOUS & DEVOUT & PIUS. Most ARCHITECTS are volunteers, who freely devoted their FAMILY TIME TO CREATE SUCH BEAUTIFUL MASJIDS.

Where is the Surah where it is said that the Quran must not be translated? There is none. The truth is that you are afraid because the diffusion of the Quran will demystify Islam and make the Quran look ridiculous. Anyone can criticize the Bible or any religious or secular book, but why talking about the Quran puts all Muslims in a trance? Why is the Quran, a book for the whole universe, not printed in all languages and distributed to all the inhabitants of the earth? Is it money that Arabs and Muslims lack?
Nonsense.
I Literally have A Quran with Arabic and with English translation.
My dear the Quran is translated already, am Ugandan 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 and we've gotten a Quran in luganda, lunyankore, and in some other local languages
I am Russian-Bangladeshi and I have a quran with English translation, Russian translation and Bengali Translation.
@@muzaffarssebyala938 Wow like Uganda a lot. It is one of my favorite countries in Africa.
Senegal is 95%
