The construction of the mosque began about two years ago, and when completed, it will have the capacity to accommodate approximately 1000 persons. The building is 120 feet by 80 feet, and the funds for its construction were donated by the Muslim community in Guyana and overseas. This publication was told that the males and females will worship separately with the ground floor being used by the men and the top floor being used by the women. The original mosque, Queenstown Jama Masjid, was built more than 100 years ago and was one of the first to be built by Muslims in Guyana and the first built in Georgetown, back in 1895. The newly-constructed three-storey building will house a section for worshipping and a teaching complex, while the ground floor will be used for medical outreaches.
