-- Construction project of a cultural-Islamic Center of Blois, France, will be started on December 1 by "Live Together" Association in France.
According to Lanouvellerepublique, Mohamed Mazghi, head of the association said, "Officially permitted by Municipality of Blois, the center is planned to be constructed in cooperation with Muslim investors to provide an opportunity for holding dialogue between followers of various religions as well as organzing religious meetings.
"The city has four mosques but none of them is a suitable place for holding meetings or instructional courses on Islamic and Quranic issues, hence a new center is to be set up to meet the needs of Muslims in this respect," he added.
An 800 square meter site is allocated for the new center which will include a mosque, classrooms, a meeting hall and a library.
