...unless of course you're a muslem.

all buildings in walking distance should benefit from this mosque coming up there, including princess tower.

Kevan · February 12th, 2012, 10:22 PM

A bit of culture in The Marina, long may it continue....

True, the location is convenient. But I'm talking about how physically close it is to Park Island. If they aren't careful, and the megaphones are positioned incorrectly, it will literally shake some people's apartments.

See, I've been discussing the same thing with some of my muslim friends. I'm yet to find one who agrees the morning Athan should be broadcasted, or at least amplified (i.e. it should be done by more traditional - less loud methods).

The usual implication they make is along the lines of "If you're not already up and ready to go to the mosque by the time the Athan is called, you're not going to get to prayer in time."

Now, I don't want to make this into an argument about volumes and the merits of the Athan in the morning. The point I was making as I said in the previous post was placing the mosque so close to another building could cause some vibration issues with certain apartments close to the speakers if the speakers were positioned incorrectly.

I'm sure that the Leaders of the Mosque will look sympathetically on any issues that neighbours have with the volume.

I am a bit more concerned by the lack of parking.

What currently happens to the broadcast from JBR in the morning? Living in Park Island I hear those during the day and in the evening, but not 4:30am

They don't broadcast it. There's no rule that says they do or don't have to. I think they're just being more considerate round there.

It would be ideal if the space next to the mosque was turned into a parking/garden area.....

we can live in hope.....

Wrong answer

.......Mosques must be nearby to resiences , offices and leisures.....whole front area of Marina i.e beach side is a big park almost 3 km of lenthy area.........

PrincessTower · February 14th, 2012, 12:34 PM

agree. also find proper mosques are needed in order to keep the local culture visible in this modern and cosmopolitan place. You can hardly make out the prayer rooms at the walk.

The DM master plan has numerous designated 'open spaces'. Let's hope that they can all be used as land for the construction of mosques as soon as possible!

Which spaces?

Josau · March 6th, 2012, 07:19 PM

I doubt each open space will be a mosque, not even parts of Dubai with a majority of locals has such a high concentration of mosques. A bit a greenery is more necessary.
