Prayer Room on Campus

A prayer room, a "Musalla" has kindly been provided by the University of Tromsø (UiT), curtsey of the student chaplain Tor Stranda, for the Muslim students and workers of UiT.

A lengthy process was required to ensure that Muslims would get an opportunity to perform their prayers on campus in a separate prayer room for them. Al-Hamdo Lillah, it is at our disposition now, and we pray that it serves as forever and that we serve it and take care of it-Amin.
