The Mosque Complex is constructed in Calgary 's North East because the majority of Ahmadis live in that area. It will provide the fast growing Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Calgary with a central focal point for congregational prayers, spiritual training and a dedicated location for social & religious events on a larger scale. The Islamic Center will include classrooms, an Islamic reference library, offices, a gymnasium. |
