Here came the opening day of this temple of worship of the creator of the worlds. So welcomed by the Muslim community for many reasons. This shrine that breathes from a universal faith is the heritage of an entire people, which embodies what the prophet said about himself "I am the prayer of Ibrahim, the sihariq of Jesus and the dream of my mother. On November 14, 2014, 10 years ago, I named the beginning of this blessed work in the service of the Albanian Muslim community as the liberation of Namazgja. I can't forget how much good will it took to clean the Namazgja area, which was transformed into a market square, imposed on the prayer space and the need of the Muslim faithful to have their central temple in Tirana, just like their compatriots and brothers. those of the Catholic, Orthodox or Bektashi faith. It has been for me since the beginning a matter of honor and weight of duty that the great mosque entered cleanly into the life of our country as a missing object of worship in this country ," said Rama.
