The Beppu Muslim Association is urgently seeking donations and financial assistance to build a masjid.
The payment deadline is on July 23, 2008; 10% of the payment would be forfeited in case they can't pay in full.
Why build a mosque in Beppu?
Muslims face difficulty to perform congregations for prayer, especially for Friday and Eid prayers; they usually rent halls for such events, but of course they can't rent any place easily.
Then, some Muslims, especially children and new generations, are affected by the Japanese culture and other ideologies, and grow up with no idea of true Islamic teachings.
The project so far?
They have already signed the initial contract for a four storey, centrally air conditioned, concrete building in
Ishigaki. The place overlooks the Beppu seaside and is in proximity to major departmental stores, restaurants and bus stops/railways station, not to mention surrounded by many Muslim residents too. Previously the place was used as an office.
Total cost of building : 27 million Yens
Paid up amount : 5.4 million Yens (20% of total) in April 2008
