HostSo, Muhammad, you've seen the whole masjid now. What do you think? What's your assessment of the whole project?

Mohammed HijabWell, I mean, a lot of people have been obviously asking and wanting to know what are the updates. And after they see something like this, it's not just that you've done everything you need to do in terms of the infrastructure of the masjid, which I'm very, very, very happy with. I mean, look at these beautiful floors, look at the minbar behind me, the fencing that we've spoken about, the things that you've done in each room, actually, the classrooms, etc., etc., etc. But it's more the academy now that you've got the kids engaged, you've got the adults engaged, you've got teachers, you've got a vibrant atmosphere. We saw how it was. I mean, everyone just saw what it was like. We didn't have to mention it. It is what it is. And that's what is the fruit of sticking with a project.

Mohammed HijabNow, because it's been so successful and because I have full trust in Islam, like 100% trust in Islam, there should be no doubt that they deliver. There is now an expansion program. And I've seen what they're trying to do, to be honest. And wallahi, the village mosque, which is the next thing, we went to the village in a derelict, kind of desolate area. It is one of the most important things we can do now from nowhere, because what we're trying to achieve is everywhere where there's no masjid for people, and that village is one of those places. We need to make sure that there's a masjid.

Mohammed HijabBut to keep the momentum going here in Scandinavia and to keep Islam strong, I would suggest very, very strongly to click on the link below, because that village masjid, wallahi, I went there, it was like serene, because you know you're starting something new, you know it's something amazing. Look, as you can see, it's a vibrant atmosphere. Kids are here having a good time. You know, it's a beautiful family environment. We want to replicate this everywhere in Norway. And once we've done that, we'll go further and further and further. Trust me, wallahi, this is in capable, capable hands. He's shown me his plans. He's shown me how he deals with the government, how he deals with every organization. He's got a whole team around him now. It's one of the best and most secure projects, and let's be honest, a very transparent country to invest in, which is Norway. A very transparent country, a very good country to invest in. So I would suggest the Muslim community do this here, because we want to first Northern Europe. We want to make sure that there's a strong Muslim presence, that the Muslims are strong here, that they have a place to pray, that they have a place to, you know, to learn Islam, to be in touch with their Muslim identity, and then we'll go further and further and further, and we'll see what happens. But make sure you click the link below and donate now.
