Add a review about the Bulgar mosque

Kazan is a megalopolis, tolerant of different cultures and religions, but still it is the capital of Tatarstan, so there is nothing unusual in the appearance here of modern Islamic religious buildings. The Bulgar mosque, located not in the central part of the capital and not in the Staro-Tatar sloboda, but in the residential "sleeping bag" of Novo-Savinovsky district, is one of the "newest" in Kazan. It was built from 1991 to 1993. Designed by architects EI Prokofiev and VV Loginov

The opening and the name of the Bulgar mosque are associated with the 1100th anniversary of the adoption of Islam by the Volga Bulgars

With warmth and respect the believers of the Bulgar mosque recall the first imam of Farukh Hazrat Fayazov, who, in addition to spiritual work, made many efforts to solve urgent problems during the construction of the mosque. His name is also the local madrassa

Exactly for 20 years the mosque Bulgar harmoniously adjoins the panel houses of the Novo-Savinovsky district of Kazan, being both its decoration and spiritual hearth.

The mosque building is modern in terms of planning and materials used in construction. The white brick mosque Bulgar is directed to the sun with its three-tiered 35-meter minaret decorated with a crescent moon

Friday's sermon by Ildus Faizov in the Bulgar mosque

The Bulgar Mosque is a two-story mosque with separate entrances and halls for men and women. Men pray on the second floor, in the main ritual hall, women on the first floor.

The interior of the Bulgar mosque is ascetic and strict. The prayer halls are decorated only with carpets, flowers and curtains on narrow windows. Initially, the project was supposed to have a magnificent interior decoration, but due to lack of funding, the finish remained only in the drawings.

Bulgar Mosque is a functioning religious institution in Kazan, where five times a day prayer is conducted, and all Islamic ritual activities are held.
