Insight into Muslim life

Year 4 were given a special insight into Muslim life when they visited the Portsmouth Jami Mosque.

After a busy term of creative and information-packed RS lessons, the children were excited to be given the opportunity to speak to an Imam about his community and his faith. Imam Muhammad Muhi Uddin had prepared an informative presentation for the children which included fun songs. We were then taken on a guided tour of the mosque and saw the main prayer hall and the wash rooms. A question and answer session followed where the children asked thoughtful questions about the Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca and the fasting that takes place during Ramadan.

What a fantastic opportunity this was for our children to meet with lovely people of another faith. We look forward to visiting the Jami Mosque again next year.
