_Hujjatul Ulama Mosque

Information

Faraz Khan, who oversees the smooth operation of the mosque and school, has done considerable research including the analysis of various design of mosques before the construction of the building commenced in 2010. Faraz noted that he and his brother Ramzan Khan decided to draft the design together, so that it would be a unique structure. They didn’t want to copy any designs of other mosques, so they have looked through many other designs of such buildings of international standards until they got an idea of how they wanted this mosque to be built. Khan disclosed that the designs inside and outside were intricately done with tiled walls in the interior and plush rugs on the floor, which was imported from Turkey. The mosque has two floors, upstairs for women outfitted with modern washroom facilities and the lower floor, used by men. At any given time, the mosque can accommodate 500 worshippers.

Hujjatul Ulama Mosque, an Institute of Higher Islamic Education, is an impressive structure that sits just off the public road at 74 Village, Lower Corentyne, Berbice. This beautiful, circular, two-floor mosque doubles as an Islamic Boarding School for youngsters of the faith.
