Muslims In Greece Ready For Ramadan

EF85724DDFD8AECA29635F604AF43411Greek officials said they are going to allow Muslims to use the Olympic Athletic Center of Athens (OAKA) and the Peace and Friendship Stadium (SEF) for huge celebrations for the period of the Ramadan religious time and fasting, as has happened previously.
The decision was made in a meeting of representatives of the competent ministries (Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs, Ministry of Culture and Sports, Ministry of Public Order and Citizen Protection).
The interested organizations or unions wishing to use those spaces are called to submit in writing their applications at the OAKA and SEF Administrative Boards until July 22. Groups who have no place to pray were directed to contact local authorities as Athens’ first official mosque has yet to begin being renovated.
