[President Camacho]

Will this shools n colleges in this mosque teach ONLY Quran and some 15th century stories and be another madrassah or some real scientific studies ,engineering and some logic ???

wat would be the uniforms??? a white slawar kameezzz???

Kerala-god's own country hahaha

Well, that could very well happen... but just a couple of things to consider: -

1. This is India.

2. Money belongs to the expat Indians, not to the Saudi Princes.

this mosque is built by AP Sunnis , a division of kerala/malabari muslims. there is lot of muslims criticizing this as a way A P Sunni(a sect of Sunnis)s wants to dominate Kerala Muslims. It includes claims that the soon to build mosque will carry the hairs of prophet from oman(or yemen ..forgot) - which opposition says is anti-islam and fake. their markaz at kanthapuram,calicut is a seminary with students from many parts of the world and very influential group among Malawari Muslims.
some says, rival sunni group will announce another masjid to rival current masjid

In Kerala, Congress & Communist may hate eachother but when it comes to defeating BJP they are on the same wavelength to the extent that they help eachother to defeat the BJP candidate.

First of all the largest temple in the world is still in Cambodia and not in India even though its home to the largest number of Hindus in the world.As far as I know there are no new temples being built(atleast in my part of the world),only the existing ones are being renovated.

Second not every Hindu believes in Sai Babba.

What a waste of money?
That 12 billion rupees could have been used to fund thousands of Muslim children's education or build schools and colleges for Muslim children or establish training institutes or used for the upliftment of many poor Muslim families instead of spending on a big concrete structure. Why are this building such a huge mosque, its not as if there is any shortage of Mosques in India.

the trillions of new found treasure in Hindu temples recently could have been used to fund millions of Hindu childern not only for education but for food too. But one wonders why to keep such huge wealth just in names of stones ??

any explaination ?

Yeah I was expecting this question?
The reason I am against this project because, Muslims are the worst performing of all minorities in India eventhough they form the largest group. 12 billion rupees can be better spent providing necessary skills to Muslims to get out of poverty rather than build a large mosque for publicity.

The one that you call treasure is archaeological artifacts and part of the culture and tradition of the land like Kohinoor and no one will sell their tradition for $$$.
Also please refrain from religious name calling.

Neither is explainable in black and white. While the mosque does seem to be creating a lot of institutions for the benefit of the area like a library, colleges,medical center etc, there will always be people questioning the need for the huge amount spent on the mosque itself. These can be from other religious bodies or other sects of Islam as well. It is a guaranteed attention garner.
As far as the temple part goes, while some of the treasures within the temple are of historic value, priceless and a reflection of prior art, there is a debate within India about the use of the wealth discovered. Hopefully it is not lost the way the Egyptian culture was. But as is common with all religions when it comes to relics or Holy treasures, there is a huge section of devout who believe that even moving the gold is sacrilege and might lead to religious sensitivities.

Mosque is just part of the big project.. Its a big township project coming up there and would benefit locals big time...
