Man builds mosque for himself

Residents of a small neighborhood in Saudi Arabia waited for several weeks for a wooden mosque to be built by a local man. As the mosque was ready, they were shocked when they were told by its owner to keep away.

The residents went to pray at the mosque in the eastern town of Dammam when they saw its owner going into it for his first prayer at the tiny structure.

“When they wanted to enter the mosque, he stopped them and told them to pray somewhere else…they said the man appears to have built the mosque for himself,” Kabar Arabic language newspaper said.
