An Indian Christian Has Built A Mosque In The UAE And Is Feeding Nearly 800 Muslims There During Ramadan
Ramadan is the month of harmony and this spirit is running through everyone in the UAE, despite their background.
An Indian Christian has decided to feed 700 fasting Muslims in spirit of the holy month
The expat built the mosque last year for Muslim workers living in a worker accommodation that he rented out to 53 companies in Fujairah.
He built the Mariam Umm Eisa (Mary, the Mother of Jesus) mosque after he noticed that workers would have to commute a fairly long distance to go to the nearest mosque to offer prayers during the holy month.
