Year 4's Visit to Southall Mosque

                 

Each Year the children visit a different place of worship
On Wednesday 24 January 2007 Year 4 Visited Southall Mosque.

We visited the mosque in the morning.

When we went into the mosque...

...the girls were asked to cover 
their heads.

First we had a talk.

We sat on the floor...

which were covered in rich carpets.

Then we went into the main part of

the mosque; we looked up to the ceiling.

There was a great chandelier...

with thousands of glittering crystals!
Pictures of people and animals are not allowed in mosques
so they are decorated with quotations from the Qur'an in Arabic writing.

While at the mosque we met some ladies who were meeting there.
