How to build a mosque in the city. Who actually built the Mosque of Umar? Ahmadzaki Safiullin - mentor of the muftis of Russia

Often in the news there are reports that new mosques are opening in different parts of Russia. And each of them has its own story, which often remains behind the scenes. We decided to talk about one such unusual story with the initiator and inspirer of the construction of a mosque in the small town of Soviet Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug Fanziya Timeryanovna Karmanova(Nigmatzyanova). A Muslim woman who built a mosque with her own hands in the distant Siberian land, in the taiga region.

Few people know about this mosque. It looks rather modest: there are no lush decorations, no intricate patterns on the facade, no unusual design. However, there is one fact that makes this mosque unique compared to any other in the country. It was built by an elderly woman (she was 60 when she started construction, and is currently 67 years old). It took her six long years to complete her plan. This unusual woman, who by her deeds changed the opinion about Muslim women, thanks to her perseverance, hard work, dedication and, as they say, a real “male character”, is highly respected among the locals. I wonder if there is still such a woman in Russia?

– Fanzia Timeryanovna, tell us a little about yourself. It is interesting to learn the life story of the only woman in Russia who built the mosque.

- I was born after the war, in 1947, in Bashkortostan, in the Tatar village of Kuzbaevo, Buraevsky district. My dad was a participant in the Second World War, he traveled the whole war behind the wheel, he was a driver. And after he returned from the front, he also worked as a driver, married his mother, we were born, three children. Dad tragically died in a car accident. My mother was widowed at the age of 30, she was left alone with small children in her arms, she raised us on her own. Grandmothers helped her. Grandmothers were religious women practicing Muslims: they read the Koran, performed five prayers, never missed a prayer. As a child, I was brought up in the spirit of Islam, in the spirit of love and obedience to Allah. Then the communist ideology alienated people from God. And I, like many at that time, was far from Islam. And only at the age of 40 she again returned to her origins, to the true religion. The orphan life, probably, brought up in me perseverance, purposefulness, I graduated from a construction technical school, a civil engineer by profession and worked in my specialty.

– And how did you end up in the Khanty-Mansiysk Okrug?

- Sovetsky - a city and a regional center (8 regional settlements) - multinational. It was formed in 1963 of the last century. In the 1960s and 1970s, people of different nationalities, including Tatars and Bashkirs, came to the Sovetsky District from all over Russia to raise the country's timber industry. I have been living in Sovietsky for more than 35 years. I came here with my husband, according to the distribution of the spouse at the place of work.

How did the idea to build a mosque come about?

- The city and district Sovetsky is 50 years old. During this time there was no mosque or religious organization. When we first moved here, I could hardly find a person who could read the verses of the Koran in the new house. Looking at me, both other Tatars and Bashkirs began to do this, then they revived the tradition of holding joint iftars, going to each other's majlis, inviting older people to read the Holy Koran. The people who arrived in the 1960s and 1970s had grown old, many were already over 80 years old, and they were in great need of spiritual fellowship. Already in 1990-2000, there was talk among the Muslim population about the need to build a mosque, as the most revered and sacred place for every Muslim. And there were no people willing to build it. Grandparents in 2005 asked me to organize the construction of a mosque with the following words: “We are already old, until we die, we would go to the mosque to pray, and no one will build it for us except you, all hope is on you” .

- And why did they put this hard work on you, on fragile women's shoulders?

- Perhaps there was no more active person in the city than me, even among men. They probably saw that I was very active, persistent, executive, and therefore they entrusted me. The Grand Mufti of Russia Talgat Tadjuddin gave his blessing for the construction of the mosque.

– Now the most interesting thing is the story of how the construction of the mosque went.

– I agreed and started working on documentation. First of all, in 2006, she created a public organization, registered it, and the charter prescribed "Construction of a mosque." It was necessary to register the land for a mosque. There were no problems with this, the land was allocated. The administration agreed to the meeting, although there was not a single Muslim among the officials at that time. Treated with understanding and respect. I am very grateful to them for this. Initially, GAZPROM provided charitable assistance by transferring 800 thousand rubles, Severavtodor gave 300 thousand. One million 200 thousand was given by LUKOIL at the end of construction (this money was spent on facing the mosque with white brick). No one has allocated any more large sums. It can be said that I collected the mosque literally bit by bit. She wrote to authorities, asked for building materials, money. I went to all major construction organizations, asked for building materials. One firm, where the director was a Russian person, singled out the foundation blocks and completed the installation of the foundation. Another, also Russian, gave slabs for the floor and blocked it on their own. The basement of the mosque was ready. The project of the mosque was developed according to my sketch. She built the mosque for six years. I only worked in the summer. During all this time, in order to organize work at the construction site (find workers, bring materials, etc.), there was no one next to me. I was both a foreman, and a foreman, and a supplier, sometimes an auxiliary worker, and a driver. I drive my own car. I even carried some building materials myself in my car (when I graduated from driving school, I was 55 years old) and my car and driver's license were very useful.

– How did people react to the fact that a mosque is being built by a woman?

– Many Muslims live here: Tatars, Bashkirs, Avars, Azerbaijanis, Kazakhs, Tajiks, Uzbeks and other Muslims. And there were no people among them who wanted to build a mosque. They were just observers. What will be next? It was very hard, there were ill-wishers, envious people and gossips around me. Shed many tears. But Allah helped me not to give up and reach the end. She always turned to Allah Almighty, prayed a lot. I always felt His presence in difficult moments. I always say: “I am infinitely grateful to Allah Almighty, He blessed me and gave me such a fate. And helped me to walk this wonderful path. Only Allah alone supported me, gave me strength. Only with His help did it happen. I can’t speak without tears… It’s a miracle! In the 21st century, a small, fragile woman, already at an advanced age, built a mosque.

– What interesting moments connected with the construction of the mosque do you remember the most?

“A lot of amazing things have happened to me over the years. For example, I remember how Tajiks helped me, very religious guys, true Muslims. They often come in brigades to work in Sovetsky. When the foundation was installed, the floors were ready, it was necessary to build walls. There was no money to pay for the work. And it was at this moment that a brigade of Tajiks of 16 people came to help in the mosque, they had the intention to build walls for free. It was in the holy month of Ramadan. They worked, they came to the mosque on their only day off. Brick walls were erected. But many of them were fasting.

I remember one more incident. At the very beginning, when there was still an empty place for the construction of a mosque, one Russian guy brought boards. Paid for shipping. He unloaded building materials and said: “Which place is good, and what will you build?” And I answer: "We will build a mosque." Then he took out the money that she paid him, and gave it back with the words: “And this is from me for the mosque.” I was confused, I said: “Are you a Tatar or what?” And he replies: “No, I'm Russian. And what difference does it make which church to help? Church, mosque - there is no difference. This is God's temple." When the building took on the shape of a mosque, people began to actively help. Helped whenever possible, regardless of their nationality and religion. The mosque was given the name "Nur", it is small, one-story, 17 by 15 meters. We still have to build amenity rooms and rooms for ablution. We still hope that there are kind people who can help. I am sure that with the help of Allah, the construction will be fully completed. During the construction of the mosque, all the canons of Islam were observed. The mosque looks towards Mecca, where the Muslim shrine - the Kaaba is located. The Kaaba serves as a landmark to which Muslims around the world turn their faces during prayer. The large hall is divided into two parts by a screen: male and female with separate entrances. The President of the Republic of Tatarstan also contributed to the construction of the mosque in Sovetskoye. I turned to Rustam Minnikhanov with a request to help us acquire the canonical symbols of Islam - two crescents, which should rise on the dome and minaret of the mosque. Their production and shipment from Kazan were organized by the World Congress of Tatars, with which our public organization actively cooperates.

Is the mosque already open?

Yes, thank God. The grand opening took place last year. A lot of people come here. The most important thing is that we now have a place to pray. In the mosque, five prayers are performed during the day, the rites of naming, marriage (nikah). The national-cultural Tatar-Bashkir center "Nur" operates at the mosque. We are engaged in the preservation of our traditions, we hold various events for the Muslim community. Now we have an imam - a young guy from Dagestan, Ramadan. We were all worried that he would not stay here for a long time, after all, the outback. But when he arrived, he said: “Wherever they send me, there I will work for the sake of Allah.” It struck me. I am glad that my work was not in vain, that Allah sent us such a decent, sincere, God-fearing imam. There are many Dagestanis in our city, Avars. I am very satisfied and grateful to them. There are lessons on the study of the Koran and Arabic writing. The mosque is always supervised, so I'm calm. I am no longer young, I want to fully devote myself to Allah, I have two granddaughters and I will try to educate them in the spirit of Islam, teach them the basics of religion, my native Tatar language. After all, thanks to my grandmothers, I also learned all this and fell in love with Islam with all my heart. Earlier, when I was interviewed, they often said that there is a certain wariness in society about the spread of Islam, the formation of diasporas, the opening of mosques. And it is clear why: sometimes extremists hide under it. My answer was: “We don’t have anything like that, and I hope we won’t have it. Our Muslims live in peace and harmony with all nationalities, there are mixed marriages. They have known each other for years. They are calm, responsive, friendly. True religion should unite us, strengthen peace, and not sow discord among us.

– What is your dream?

– I am infinitely grateful to everyone who helped me in this holy cause with building materials and money. May Allah Almighty keep and bless everyone! My dream is to visit Islamic countries where there are beautiful mosques, to read namaz there. Most of all I dream of making the Hajj, visiting the blessed Mecca and Medina. I'm not young anymore, can I?

Several times during the interview Fanziya Timeryanovna repeated: " All this is from Allah, it was He who helped me build a mosque, and He prepared such a fate for me and helped me go through this beautiful path. I am eternally grateful to Allah Almighty". The woman hospitably invited to visit, promised to arrange a tour of the mosque. And, probably, for the first time in my life, I sincerely wanted to get to this taiga region in order to meet this amazing woman.

One of the most meritorious deeds of Muslims is the construction of mosques. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said about the value of this good deed: Blessed is he who builds a mosque and reads the Qur'an in it, standing or sitting. Such a person is incomparable with those who only watch the work, fearing to dust their clothes."(Imam al-Bukhari). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said: Whoever builds a mosque, even the size of a partridge's nest, Allah will build a house in Paradise ».

We ask Allah to grant Paradise and build a palace in Paradise to this woman and to everyone who has helped her in any way and will continue to help! Amine!

Already in the winter of next year, the first Friday prayer can be held at the Ahmadzaki mosque, but this requires the help of caring Muslims

Residents of the village of Zalesnoy and the Salavat Kupere residential complex will soon be able to become parishioners of the mosque under construction on the outskirts of Kazan. The team of which legendary architect undertook the construction of a Muslim temple, why did they decide to call the mosque "Ahmadzaki" and which of the Tatarstan ministers came up with the idea of ​​building a religious building? "BUSINESS Online" tells about the new religious center of Muslims, in the appearance of which everyone can take part.

We are talking about the Ahmadzaki mosque under construction, which will be located in a very convenient place - at the intersection of Zalesnaya and Osinovskaya streetsPhoto: Lira Garayeva

“IN ZALESNOY THERE IS NO MOSQUE OR A TEMPLE WHICH COULD ACCEPT EVERYONE”

A unique Muslim temple, whose parishioners will be residents of two residential areas belonging to Kazan at once - the village of Zalesny and the Salavat Kupere microdistrict - should appear in the very near future. We are talking about the Ahmadzaki mosque under construction, which will be located in a very convenient place - at the intersection of Zalesnaya and Osinovskaya streets. Its minaret can already be seen from the nearest streets.

The idea of ​​building a spiritual object belongs to the current Minister of Youth Affairs of Tatarstan Damir Fattakhov, it arose in those days when the latter headed the Kirov and Moscow districts of the capital of Tatarstan.

“When we thought about the integrated development of Zalesny and the new Salavat Kupere microdistrict, in which the construction of residential buildings had just begun at that time, it was important for us to take into account the spiritual side of the life of the local community,” the minister told BUSINESS Online. “Moreover, there were appeals from residents who said that in Zalesnoye there is neither a mosque nor a temple that could accommodate everyone.” That is why the idea of ​​building a modern large mosque appeared, says Fattakhov. “Thanks to Mayor of Kazan Ilsur Raisovich Metshin, who supported this intention and allocated a land plot for both the Ahmadzaki mosque and an Orthodox church in the same area. I am very glad that very soon these intentions will come true and the mosque will open its doors to parishioners, ”our interlocutor hopes.

“When we thought about the integrated development of Zalesny and the new Salavat Kupere microdistrict, it was important for us to take into account the spiritual side of the life of the local community,” said Damir Fattakhov Photo: BUSINESS Online

In Zalesnoye there is already a mosque "Maulid", which for the time being met the needs of the local ummah, but when the microdistrict "Salavat Kupere" began to be populated, the number of parishioners increased significantly. So there is definitely a demand for a modern religious center in this area now. Moreover, there are more and more citizens interested in spiritual development.

The choice of the construction site is also explained by the fact that this is one of the entrances to Kazan through the federal highway. The high minaret of the future mosque will be visible from afar, becoming a real beacon for wanderers, guests will be able to stop and pray in comfortable conditions.

KUL SHARIF AND "AHMADZAKI". WHAT COMMON?

Interestingly, the two mosques - located in the Kazan Kremlin Kul Sharif and Ahmadzaki - may have much in common. At least they have one "father". The new house of Allah is being built according to the project of the architect team Aivara Sattarova. Although, of course, the purpose of these two objects is different from each other. According to the curator of the construction site, a deputy of the Kazan City Duma Rustam Ramazanova, "Ahmadzaki" should become not only a place where prayer is performed, but also a real Islamic center.

“We want the new mosque to become a modern religious center for Muslims in this region of Kazan, we discussed its concept with the administration of the regions, with Sergei Mironov,” Ramazanov told our correspondent. “Therefore, the project of the mosque included not only prayer halls for men and women, but also madrasahs, where both adults and children can study, in addition, we plan to create everything necessary there so that religious rites and rituals can be held in civilized conditions. canons of Islam. The project of the mosque was created by one of the best architects of the republic, its concept combines a tribute to our traditions and modern architectural solutions.”

According to Ramazanov, the prayer hall in Ahmadzaki will be able to receive up to 400 parishioners at the same time. In addition, a madrasah will operate in the mosque, where they will teach the basics of Islam, teach several languages, conduct master classes for children and various educational programs for adult parishioners. All spaces are designed with accessibility in mind to ensure the smooth movement of people with disabilities. At the stage of coordination with all the necessary structures, there are certain services related to the performance of religious rituals according to all the canons of Islam. It is no secret that now many Muslims are worried about whether there will be a place for their cars in the mosque. In Ahmadzaki, a special area for 70 parking spaces is provided for this.

WHO BUILD A MOSQUE, ALLAH WILL BUILD A HOUSE IN PARADISE

Every Muslim knows that participation in the construction of a mosque is a very charitable deed, for which he will receive a reward in both worlds. In this sense, any contribution to such a good cause is, of course, Savap. Even now, many Muslims voluntarily help the construction site, realizing that this will be a memory that they will leave behind for future generations.

In addition, the construction of a mosque is a tradition of our people, says the mufti of Tatarstan Kamil hazrat Samigullin. « The ancestors of the Tatars at all times were in a hurry to participate in such a charitable cause, because every Muslim believes that whoever builds a mosque, Allah will build a house in paradise, Kamil hazrat told BUSINESS Online. This is how the Prophet Muhammad taught us. There is a hadith that on the Day of Judgment, Allah, addressing people, will say: “Oh, my neighbors, get up!” People will be surprised and ask: “Oh, Almighty Allah! Do you also have neighbors?” Then Allah Almighty will say: “Yes, these are the people who built the mosques, they are my neighbors.” Then these people will rise up, and they will be led into paradise without an account, for the mosque is the house of Allah and the Almighty makes those who built it his neighbors.

The spiritual leader of the Muslims of Tatarstan cites the deeds of the Messenger of Allah himself as an example. “The Prophet himself, having made the hijra (migration) from Mecca to Medina, first of all built a mosque. Not a house for yourself, but a mosque. After all, a mosque is a place where people, rich and poor, strong and weak, stand together in one row to worship the Almighty, and then a sense of brotherhood, solidarity and mercy towards each other increases between them. I am glad that in the past 6 years alone, about 170 mosques have opened their doors in the republic, and dozens more are being built. In terms of the number of mahallas, Tatarstan ranks second in Russia after Dagestan,” says the chairman of the Spiritual Muslim Board of the Republic of Tatarstan.

“The ancestors of the Tatars at all times hastened to participate in such a charitable cause, because every Muslim believes that whoever builds a mosque, Allah will build a house in paradise,” said Kamil Hazrat Samigullin Photo: BUSINESS Online

AHMADZAKI SAFIULLIN - MENTOR OF MUFTIS OF RUSSIA

It is gratifying that the mosque will bear the name of Ahmadzaki in honor of Ahmadzaki Safiullina(1896-1995), who is called the man who formed the Muslim establishment, because most of the country's muftis were his students. Zaki hazrat, as Muslims called him, gave lessons to the chairman of the council of muftis of Russia Ravil Gaynutdin, head of the Central Spiritual Board Talgat Tadzhuddin, the first mufti of Tatarstan Gabdulla Galiullin, his successor Gusman Iskhakov, Chairman of the Spiritual Assembly of Muslims of Russia Albir Krganov, imam-hatyba of the mosque "Al Marjani" Mansur Jalyaletdin and many others.

Ahmadzaki hazrat Safiullin was one of the most famous and prominent religious figures of the 20th century. Despite the complexity and inconsistency of the Soviet period, even then he called people to iman, truth and morality, and served for the benefit of Islam. Hazrat Ahmadzaki made an invaluable contribution to the development of the Muslim Ummah in Tatarstan, he was not afraid to perform religious rites even when any religious activity was banned. In the 1970s-1990s, Hazrat Ahmadzaki worked as an imam of the Mardjani mosque, the only one operating in Kazan at that time. Then he united and was the spiritual mentor of the imams who worked in mosques throughout the republic.

“I hope that the mosque, which will bear the name of one of the most prominent Tatar Islamic scholars and theologians, Ahmadzaki Hazrat Safiullin, will become a place for gaining knowledge for different generations of our fellow believers, striving to be closer to the Almighty, to spiritual purity and wealth. And most importantly, the future mosque should develop and preserve our spiritual guidelines, the traditions of the Tatar mahalla and our native language. In this sense, mosques in Tatarstan play an important role in raising the level of spirituality and morality of the society and the Tatar people, in particular, because traditionally they are not only religious centers, but also a venue for scientific, educational, educational, children's and youth, cultural events”, - says Mufti of Tatarstan Kamil Hazrat Samigullin.

The project of the future mosque was agreed in advance with the descendants of Akhmatzaki Hazrat Safiullin, who are also actively helping to build the mosque. By the way, the new mosque will definitely have a small corner dedicated to Hazrat Ahmadzaki, where his books will be presented.

You can make a donation in favor of the construction of the mosque through the settlement account of the parish.

Question: Asalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu. I wanted to ask if you can help me with something? The Muslims of the city of Millerovo want to build a mosque in the city, because there is no mosque in the next 200 km. Can you give us some advice on where to start? We will collect money for the mosque, but most likely it will not be enough.

Answer: Hello! It is important to note that the construction of a mosque is not an end in itself for the Muslim community, otherwise our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, would have sent all the forces and means to create one, but we know from history that at first, with the help of teaching his companions, the Prophet created a capable community Muslims.

For quite a long time, Muslims used for prayers, first a private house, and then the territory limited by the houses of the Prophet and his companions.

Then, when free funds appeared, Muslims began to build stationary facilities used for worship. In this way, we advise modern Muslims in our country to act, namely: to begin to form a capable community, for which, in the future, it will be possible to build the necessary building.

In the 21st century, already called the "century of nanotechnology", building a mosque is not an easy task. We need a lot of material resources and, of course, the land on which it will stand. In order for a building where people pray to be considered a mosque and it was possible to perform namaz-takhiyat (a prayer of greeting) in it, it is necessary that the land on which it was built be transferred to the mosque - in other words, that it be a waqf.

In many regions of the world, there are not enough functioning mosques and there is an urgent need to build new ones, as well as to expand old ones.

Such a need arose in the village of Tarumovka in the Republic of Dagestan. But the construction of a mosque in this settlement differs from the usual model for the construction of temples. A creative approach to the construction of mosques was proposed by a resident of this settlement, Kharsmagomed Ashtaev. He decided to divide his own land plot into "conventional units" of 0.5 square meters each - and offered to buy these "conventional units" to everyone with subsequent transfer to the mosque as a waqf. And the money for land units goes to the construction of the mosque. It turns out that a person does not just donate funds for construction, but allocates land for a mosque and becomes an accomplice in the construction of God's temple - for which he receives a huge reward! With each owner who buys a "conditional unit" of land, a written Agreement is concluded - an agreement, which stipulates the condition that the buyer will then allocate it for the construction of a mosque. After that, he is given a Certificate stating that he gave the land (waqf) for the mosque. One of the first "conventional units" of land was bought by relatives, friends and acquaintances of Harsmagomed Ashtaev. More and more people are joining this process. Everyone wants to allocate land, albeit a small one, so that a mosque can be built on it. The mosque itself, according to the plan, will be very beautiful, two-story, with a minaret and is designed for approximately 2,500 thousand people.

The procedure and all financial matters have full transparency, as everything is official and documented accordingly. Moreover, anyone has the opportunity to find out what exactly each penny is spent on. The full report is publicly announced and will be posted on the mosque's website. For this, the site of the future mosque is being specially created.

But the innovative ideas of the inhabitants of Tarumovka do not end there, it is still planned to broadcast the construction of the mosque online. Special cameras will film the construction process and on the Internet, anyone will be able to follow how each brick is being laid in the future mosque.

Anyone can purchase a "conditional unit" of land - become a participant in the construction of a new temple on earth and deposit considerable capital into their Eternal Account in the Other World. A list of participants in this action has been compiled - already now, in addition to residents of Tarumovka, people from different villages and cities of the Republic of Dagestan have entered there.

The first mosques

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), not caring about his home, being a migrant, directed all his efforts, first of all, to the construction of mosques. The construction of mosques was such a significant thing for him.

“Whoever builds a mosque, even the size of a partridge’s nest, the Almighty will build a house in Paradise,” said the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), in his hadith. This is due to the fact that mosques are of great benefit, both to each person individually and to society as a whole.

The first mosques the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam), together with his companions, built of clay and they had no roof, and prayers were performed right on the ground.

In modern conditions, when Islam is spreading in the world at an accelerating pace, there is an urgent need for the construction of mosques and Islamic educational institutions (madrasas). Temples - religious buildings today are almost the only sources of morality and it is in them that they learn to be people. If it were not for their contribution to the moral education of the younger generation, we would have crime many times more than now.

What is Waqf?

Waqf- this is property that is inexhaustible during its use, given away for permitted purposes, without the right to conclude transactions, for example, purchase and sale transactions, exchange, etc.

Waqf is considered approved and demanded by Sharia. The basis for the emergence of this kind of property is the Koran and the Sunnah. God Almighty says in the Quran:

لَنْ تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ وَمَ ا تُنْفِقُوا مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهُ 92)

(meaning): “You will not receive a reward for good deeds (that is, you will not go to Paradise) until you spend from what you love. And whatever you spend, Allah is Aware of it.”(Sura Alyu Imran, verse 92).
