Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has announced Saudi Arabia's sponsorship of the restoration of the Islamic Center in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, following a fire last month, which damaged a huge part of the Center, the Saudi Press Agency reported Wednesday.
Islamic Centers have a significant role in the education of younger generations and the spread of a tolerant Islam, as well as its message based on peace, moderation, and dialogue, said SPA.
The Jakarta Islamic Center covers an area of 109,435 square meters and consists of many facilities, including a mosque with an area of 2,200 square meters, which accommodates more than 20,000 worshippers, in addition to a research studies center and a conference hall, the news agency added.
