Children in Year 6 spent an interesting morning at Khizra Mosque in Cheetham Hill as part of their learning in RE

We were welcomed into the main prayer room and we also visited the top floor where we could see the beautiful dome from the inside. We were shown around the washrooms used by Muslims before praying.

We learnt that the name Khizra means green which is the colour of the domecomes from the dome.

We found out about the importance of Ummah in the Islamic faith, how the behaviour and conduct of individuals can affect the whole community and that Muslims believe that it is your duty to help others you if you are able.
