Visit a Mosque
One of the spiritual focal points in the life of a Muslim is the mosque. Mosques are not only places of worship, but also places where many community and youth activities take place, such as Qur’an memorisation, lectures, sports and recreation. Visiting a place of worship is a unique experience that brings the class-based learning of faiths to life. It provides a different insight and understanding of a Muslim’s way of life and also allows pupils to see for themselves the main features of a mosque and what goes on inside one.
Learning about a faith in an environment where the faith is actively being practised is one of the main ways to understand, relate and create dialogue between Muslims and the surrounding communities. With this in mind, Muslim Outreach has set up a mosque visit service to allow schools the opportunity to enter a mosque and find out what goes on inside, fulfilling syllabus requirements to learn about places of worship. Our hope is that the system we have set in place will allow schools the chance to visit a mosque.
