Quotes[edit]
- He who builds a mosque in the way of Allah, God will build a house for him in the paradise.
- - Sahih Muslim, Nr. 828; muslim-canada.org Muhammad
- "The whole earth has been made a mosque and pure for me." - (Bukhari, www.alislam.org)
- The idolaters have no right to maintain the mosques of Allah, while bearing witness to disbelief against themselves. These it is whose works are vain; and in the Hell will they abide. Only he can maintain the mosques of Allah who believes in Allah and the Last Day, and keeps up prayer and pays the poor-rate and fears none but Allah. So these it is who may be of the guided ones. Do you hold the giving of drink to the pilgrims and the maintenance of the Sacred Mosque equal to (the service of) one who believes in Allah and the Last Day and strives hard in Allah's way? They are not equal in the sight of Allah. And Allah guides not the iniquitous people. Those who believed and fled (their homes), and strove hard in Allah's way with their wealth and their lives, are much higher in rank with Allah. And it is these that shall triumph.
- Quran 9:17-20
- The (Taipei) city (government) should use its budget to build a bigger mosque, preferably close to an MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) station.
- Ko Wen-je (2016) cited in "Mayor says Taipei should fund, build larger mosque" on Taipei Times, 4 October 2016.
