  • May 4, 2019 - Algiers, Algeria - Algiers, May 04, 2019 Algeria: The Grand Mosque of Algiers, also known as Djamaa el Djazair, is the largest mosque in Africa and must open its doors. Facing the sea, the Great Mosque of Algiers, colossal work of Abdelaziz Bouteflika pushed to resign by demonstrations on April 2, would have cost two billion US dollars for construction. The mega-mosque complex covers an area of 400,000 square meters, making it the third largest mosque in the world. Its 20,000 square meter prayer room is designed to accommodate 37,000 worshipers at a time. The giant mosque also includes the world's tallest minaret, 265 meters high, designed to withstand a magnitude 9.0 earthquake. The project was overseen by the China State Construction Engineering Corporation (CSCEC), which has deployed approximately 2,300 engineers, construction officials and workers from China, Algeria and other African countries. Construction began in August 2012  (Credit Image: © Billal Bensalem/NurPhoto via ZUMA Press)

  • EXCLUSIVE: FIRST PICTURES OF ‘BUCKINGHAM PALACE’ BUILT BY TAX FRAUDSTER IN PAKISTAN These are the first pictures of a Pakistani ‘Buckingham Palace’ which now lies empty after allegedly being built by a UK fraudster. Previous aerial images of Mohammed Suleman Khan’s palatial property did not show the true extent of the jailed tax dodger’s dreams. Khan was caged in April 2014 for four years over a tax fraud of £450,000. He was sentenced to a further ten years in 2016 for refusing to pay back £2.2million. But it’s nearly 4,000 miles away in the Pakistani town of Ghorgushti, 50 miles from the capital Islamabad, Khan’s ambitions still resonate with the community, many of whom have close links to the UK. There on a two-acre site a huge construction lies mostly deserted complete with high walls and imposing turrets. According to locals in the town – known as ‘mini London’ because of its strong links to the UK – Khan allegedly bought the site for his palace around eight years ago. However, since his jailing the site has remained unfinished and become a ‘no-go area’ with around a dozen armed security guards around it. When police first investigated Khan they uncovered blueprints for a ‘Buckingham Palace’ like building in Pakistan. Plans reportedly showed a cinema, library and servants’ quarters, and private security accommodation. It was estimated the construction would have cost £2.3million, although there has been no official record of ownership. Now the luxurious surroundings of the palace appear remain but without a resident ‘Don’ as locals said Khan was known to inhabit them. One neighbor said: “If you try to get into or jump from the wall they will shoot you, they often do aerial firing at night too.” The compound is closed with wooden panels barring the front gate, it has minaret security towers on each corner, which is not unusual in such big compounds elsewhere in Pakistan. Neighbors estimated there are around 30 to 40 ro

  • South Africa - Cape Town - 13 May 2019 - Places of worship to open at level 3 lockdown, attendance limited to 50 people. Churches, mosques and synagogues may resume religious services as long as these are limited to 50 people or less, President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Tuesday night. The president's announcement comes after a meeting of the National Coronavirus Command Council which considered the inputs made by the religious sector in recent consultations with interfaith leaders. Ramaphosa also announced a national day of prayer on Sunday, May 31.<br />

Original caption;Zeenatul Islam Mosque during their Adhan or Call to Prayer announcement made by the Muezzin.  The Adhan, Athan, or Azaan is the Islamic call to worship, recited by the Muezzin at prescribed times of the day.<br />
Adhan is called out by a Muezzin from the mosque five times a day, before dawn, mid afternoon, before dusk, after dusk and when its dark later. The main purpose behind the multiple loud pronouncements of Adhan in every mosque is to make available to everyone an easily intelligible summary of Islamic belief. These days loudspeakers are used on minarets for this purpose. The Mosque in Muir Street, has had a single "noise pollution" complaint lodged against them at the City of Cape Town, which is obliged, in terms of the law, to investigate. ‘’The Adhan is extremely spiritual to us and has a major meaning to us…’’, says Nizaam Raynard about Adhan and what it means in his Muslim religion.

Churches, mosques and synagogues may resume religious services as long as these are limited to 50 people or less, President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Tuesday night. The president's announcement comes after a meeting of the National Coronavirus Command Council which considered the inputs made by the religious sector in recent consultations with interfaith leaders. Ramaphosa also announced a national day of prayer on Sunday, May 31.<br />

Adhan is called out by a Muezzin from the mosque five times a day, before dawn, mid afternoon, before dusk, after dusk and when its dark later. The main purpose behind the multiple loud pronouncements of Adhan in every mosque is to make available to everyone an easily intelligible summary of Islamic belief. These days loudspeakers are used on minarets for this purpose. The Mosque in Muir Street, has had a single "noise pollution" complaint lodged against them at the City of Cape Town, which is obliged, in terms of the law, to investigate. ‘’The Adhan is extremely spiritual to us and has a major meaning to us…’’, says Nizaam Raynard about Adhan and what it means in his Muslim religion.
