In a swift response to the directives of His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, Sharjah Islamic Affairs (SIA) has begun construction of a new mosque in Kshisha1 area of Al Rahmaniyah.
This action follows Sheikh Sultan’s instructions in response to a call made on the "Direct Line" programme, aired by Sharjah Broadcasting Authority, where a caller expressed the urgent need for a mosque in the area.
Specialised teams from the SIA started work within less than a month, coordinating with relevant authorities to initiate the design and preliminary phases at the mosque site.
These include land preparation, ensuring the mosque is designed in line with the architectural standards of the emirate’s mosques, considering capacity, services, and a distinctive Islamic aesthetic and architectural style.
This project exemplifies Sheikh Sultan’s consistent dedication to fulfilling the needs of the emirate’s residents and enhancing their quality of life.
The department affirmed that the new mosque will meet the needs of Kshisha1 residents, as part of a carefully planned geographical distribution of mosques, within an integrated vision aimed at building a spiritually and architecturally cohesive community.
