Never heard of that - would that be the one in Mirrabooka? Or were you South of the River? The school you're talking about - was that AIC by any chance? Wow - im so glad to meet someone who's been to Perth! Yay! Yeah - I miss Perth heaps, mate. When was the last time you visited the place? I love the people - they're so happy and friendly. I think so anyway. Peace to you dear brother. |

The Affghan mosque - sis it's the main one - on William Street? The big white one?! AIC... um - Cannington or Canning Vale or something... can't rightly remember. But I think it is the only Moslem school in the area. The reason why the Sydney umah is so messed up is this delightful obsession with maintaining nationality silo's. You know - Turkish mosque, Bangladeshi mosque, Lebanese Muslim Association etc. They so rarely mix. As the well-meaning brother mentioned above, we are ALL Moslems, alhamdulilah and that is really all that matters. I felt the spirit of that in Perth. Am still desperately seeking it in Sydney. | |

Yes, the mosque on Brisbane Street - "Perth Mosque". I didnt know they referred to it as the Afghan Mosque. Yes, its lovely and white so when the sun shines - the bright reflection ...blinds you Yeah, Cannington - there was also one in Thornlie. But you'll be surprised to know there are many new Muslim schools opened up now. Salam |

I saw the stone that has the date engraved on it in the mosque. And the other writing on the stone I believe is in a Persian sort of script. Yeah. |
