Impressive, but it seems perhaps a little too grand for my taste.
I recently took a tour and two of my young children were with me (although just visiting rather than participating in prayers).
Fatimah--is it common for mosques to exclude young children? When I was living in the U.S. a number of Christian churches had a habit of putting children and their mothers in the "cry room" (a sound proof room that used an intercom to transmit prayers into the room). It really bothered me; and several friends have said such things are going out of fashion.
