QUESTERS VISIT TO SOUTHAMPTON MOSQUE 17 APRIL 2024

This will be a self-drive visit, AND CAR SHARING WILL BE ESSENTIAL BECAUSE OF LIMITED PARKING AT THE VENUE.

Arrival time at the Mosque is 11.15 and our visit commences at 11.30 and will comprise a talk about Islam with questions and answers and then some demonstrations.

Please note that the mosque has a strict, but not very onerous dress code to which all visitors MUST adhere.   The guidance they supply states ‘everyone to wear modest dress (ie no shorts, short skirts, etc no bare arms). Ladies to wear a headscarf or bandanna.’  You will probably need to remove your shoes upon entry.

The mosque provides a lunchtime meal of Asian food which is not particularly hot or highly spiced at a cost of £6-00 pp.  This is a daily event; the food being prepared in their own kitchens from where they feed members of their community.

A number of other groups known to us have made this visit and they have been full of praise about the warm hospitality, general interest, and friendliness of the congregation.  It is recommended as a completely new experience.

 

FURTHER DETAILS TO FOLLOW.

Meanwhile, please indicate you interest to me and whether you require a lift.

Best wishes
