Sharjah 24: During the first half of this year, the Sharjah Charity International (SCI) has completed the construction of 754 mosques outside the country, at a cost of 39.9 million dirhams.
The construction of these mosques is part of SCI’s construction projects, and based on the desire of donors who wanted to sponsor the construction of these mosques in remote areas of the countries included in the Charity’s projects, compared to 624 mosques that were implemented during the same period last year, an increase of 21%.

Mohammed Abdul Rahman Al Ali, director of SCI’s Project Management and External Aid, confirmed the Charity’s keenness to choose remote areas that lack service facilities to build mosques, as the project aims to facilitate worship and rituals for the Muslims in these places, in a way that preserves the identity of its residents and facilitates performing worship and building houses of God.

Ali explained that 157 mosques were built in Niger, 119 in Ghana, 105 in Uganda, 94 in Bangladesh, 39 in Sierra Leone, 33 in Egypt, 32 in Mauritania, 30 in India, 25 in Benin, 24 in Burkina Faso, 19 in Indonesia, and the same in Senegal, 15 mosques in the Philippines, 13 in Malawi, 12 in Mali, 5 mosques in Togo, 4 in Thailand, 3 in Zimbabwe, 2 in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and an average of one mosque in each of Guinea Conakry, Liberia, Sudan and Comoros.
