Opportunity to open a mosque

The husband, who did missionary work at a university in Libya, was involved in missionary activities after returning to Japan, and moved the Racket Shop Hamanaka which he originally managed, from Matsuyama (Located in the center part of Ehime prefecture, famous for its hot spring Dogo Onsen.) to Niihama (Located in the center part of Ehime prefecture, Shikoku's leading coastal industrial city.). Since there was no mosque, he set up a mosque by himself. The husband, who was a missionary, passed away five years ago, and the mosque was changed to a General Incorporated Foundation from private management, now run by his wife and two Indonesians.
