I love the view from the dual carriage way, you can see the domes of 4 Masaajid, practically next to each other!
'Islamic center' Nottingham.
This ill-managed lump of grey concrete, believe it or not, is the main Masjid for Nottingham. In fact, it is to my knowledge the only purpose-built Masjid in Nottingham.
We are the capital of the east Midlands, why do we have such an ugly Masjid whilst other, less important towns like Peterbourgh and Derby have really nice ones?
although i think they spent to much money its still a beauty
Masjid Al Farooq
I remember when it was a wee masjid. you'd enter the park lot and get down.. go straight down the stairs to school. or you would go right to the mosque and on the right. during break time, I remember visiting the Halal Foods store on the left, eating those strawberry shortcake ice cream/cookie sandwich or (omg) Halal Rice Crispies treat.
Oh man, I saw all kinds of Muslims there. I met a Chinese Palestinian Muslim. Muslims from all over the world.
This is the Dome of the Rock, Al Aqsa is maybe a hundred metres away, with a grey dome. we went there in 2009. We were allowed up on the Temple Mount, but sadly we were not allowed in the Dome of the Rock.
I did go inside back in 1965, when Jerusalem was mostly inside Jordan, however, I did not appreciate or understand what I was seeing back then.
I have also tried to post a couple of Masjid pictures, but my uploads fail.

We had to go through metal detectors, and the police gave us a thorough check over, then we had to queue up for over an hour. We went up from the Jewish side, up the wooden walkway, and you go up onto the temple Mount under the blue canopy that you see. As you go onto the mount, there is a sign that says, you are entering a most sacred place where God is always present, next to this sign are police with guns, and there are riot shields stacked nearby. We only had about ten minutes on the Temple Mount, and were not allowed in either building, it seemed deserted of life, apart from pilgrims.
This is the Wailing Wall, or Western Wall, the Jews place their written prayers in the gaps between the stones, The Dome of the Rock is above.
We saw a group by the Wailing Wall, casually carrying guns as if they were an accessory like a handbag, not what you would expect in a Holy Place
