Moscow becoming Europe’s largest Muslim city

 thousands of Muslims gathered on Saturday morning, chanting “God is great!”

 

Though turning more hostile to Muslims, Moscow has witnessed major Eid Al-Fitr prayer in which more than 60,000 gathered for prayers at the golden-domed Sobornaya mosque despite the bewildered and scared faces of passersby and baton-wielding police officers around them.

In a scene that became normal over the past few years, thousands of Muslims gathered on Saturday morning, chanting “God is great!”

They knelt and prostrated in front of the Sobornaya mosque in Moscow’s main square and five temporarily blocked streets.
