After years in the making, Iqaluit’s new mosque held its inauguration Friday, officially opening as a place of worship.

The building will serve as a prayer space and a community centre for Iqaluit’s 100 or so Muslims, as well as a place to learn about Islam.

“By establishing this mosque, we are saying one thing: we are now an integral part of Iqaluit, we are now a part of the Iqaluit community,” said Hussain Guisti, the Zubaidah Tallab Foundation’s general manager.

If you can build a mosque in Iqaluit, you can build it anywhere else on the planet.
