France Tolerance Towards Islam unlike the US where Mosques are Banned Often

Prime Minister Fillon attends mosque opening

French Prime Minister Francois Fillon is expected on Monday to open a huge new mosque in the Paris suburb of Argenteuil, home to some 28,000 Muslims. It is the first time in the history of the French 5th Republic (since 1958) that a prime pinister of this rigidly secular state has attended such an inauguration.

The Al-Ihsan mosque, built on the site of a disused Renault factory, was bought by an Algerian businessman 20 years ago. Its imams will be appointed by Algiers.

The building can hold up to 2,500 worshippers and includes a Koranic school.

Fillon will be accompanied by Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux, whose portfolio of responsabilities includes France’s diverse religions, as well as immigration.

Allah is Seer of what ye do” (48:24). And we know that the Ka’aba predates Islam, as Muhammad is said to have entere
