From Morning Report, 6:13 am on 22 March 2019

A man who prayed at the Al Noor mosque on the day it opened 35-years ago will return to pray there today. Hanif Quazi was part of a group of Christchurch Muslims who raised money to build the mosque in 1985. Today he will return. Speaking outside the al Noor mosque, Dr Quazi told Alex Ashton one of his fondest memories was getting the keys, and visiting the mosque with his wife and three children.
