Ndiyo mwingine nzarchya I'm not going to. Where is he? Yeah, yeah. I'm going The first The name of the product Mkao Mko I'm not sure. I'm not. Nchini hali kuzimvio mbaya mpengu wetu msa.

Mtabuhani Wagi. I'm going to the hospital. How are you? After what they want you to do? Kama hapa, Ipaswami jasi But - What? Wafadha n wa I was trying to make sure that I placed my legs correctly.

You know what? 96, 97, 98 and Somewhere in the middle of the road I'm not going to do it. So, when you look at each and every beginning of most of the chapters in the Quran have the words of praise God first. You first praise God with his name and then you begin to read the chapter. For example, when the Quran is being read, you start. In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful. Read in the name of your Lord who created, He created man from a pure substance. Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous, Who has taught you by the pen. He taught man what he did not know. Read, and not all people are transgressors to their Lord. Indeed, they think they are free of need. The National Mosque supports Dawah. Dawah is offering. The ladies' area is small. Yeah, a few ladies come to the mosque. Why don't women come as many as men to the mosque? Because of different issues or different reasons. Oh, maybe they're having babies. One reason. - I'm not going anywhere. Babies don't stop women from coming. Even a man can come with a lady. - I'm not going to. I have my baby, I want to come with the baby to pray. I'm going with him. I do too. The reason is like in the Qur'an. It's optional for ladies to come and pray from the mosque and it's obligatory for men. Oh, all right. So, you find that in most cases, ladies sometimes choose to pray from there. From either their workplace, from home, from anywhere. But for men, they have to come. Well, another reason why the Gaddafi Mosque is popular is because of this tower. When you go up to the top of this tower, you can have a view of the original hills of Kampala. So let's go up and let's learn a little more. The aerial view of Kampala is really beautiful. I don't know why it's always like when you're on top of a building and you're having aerial view of a place. It's actually always beautiful, sometimes even more so than when you're on the ground. Look at this. - What? This is the top of the Gaddafi Mosque. And so let me just give you a 360 view of Kampala. Well, before I can show you the original seven hills of Kampala. Originally, the formation of the city of Kampala began with its formation of seven hills. But now Kampala has gone from seven to over 21 hills. So our interest is looking at the seven but not the 21. But among those seven hills, in each and every hill we shall find that there is a certain institution located on the top of that hill. An example of the first hill is this one where the mosque is situated. It's known as Old Kampala Hill. The old Kampala Hill. And the reason it is Old Kampala Hill is because its original name, which was called it first, was changed. And that is Kampala. The city, I mean the hill was originally known as Kampala. Kampala Hill originated from the name of animals and those are the impalas. Impala, originally. That's where the name Kampala originated from. And later, the whole city was called Kampala City and this one was changed to Old Kampala. So this hill has a ring road around it that connects most of the roads that are coming out of Kampala heading here. Just because during the formation of those roads, all the interest was here. This was a city center as well as a business center which was started up here by the Indians. Before he was just the third president of Uganda. So this was a business center. And we find that the mosque was established here later. That was in 1971. But when the Indians had already set up a business center here. Then, the second hill, that is Kampala Hill. Those green trees, in the middle there's that yellow building. That's called the King's Palace. Okay, the King's Palace. Okay, over there. That hill, is the hill that has the building with two towers. That is Lubaga Hill. Which is occupied by a Catholic Cathedral. And that's the headquarters of all Catholics in Uganda. That building was established in 1914. And not only that. It's the only cathedral that's been visited by three different popes in all of Africa. Three different Popes in all of Africa. Pope Paul VI. Then there is John Paul II. And also St. Paul Francis. Those three. Then we have this hill. That hill is called Nnamerembe Hill. It is occupied by the oldest cathedral in all of Africa. Ah, you know. So, the cathedral was modified in 1915 to look like this. And that is St. Paul's Cathedral. I'm going to Nnamerembe. Which looks the same as St. Paul's Cathedral in London. And that's the building. Then we have this hill, this side. Which is covered with a lot of green trees. - I know. And this is Makerere Hill. Which is occupied by the oldest university in all of East Africa. Which is known as Makerere University. Which was established in 1922, immediately after World War I. Uh-huh. What's up? That university is among the top five universities in all of Africa. And that university used to be among the top three universities in all of Africa. But it was out-populated by three universities. The first three universities are now the best in South Africa. And that's among the top five in all of Africa. Then we have the other tall building. That's a hotel. But behind it, there's a hill with two antennas. Yes, I can see. The Kololo Hill. It's mostly occupied by embassies. So that's a hill where you find most of the embassies in Uganda. Then we have this hill, the city center. Of the Kololo Hill. It's called Nakasero Hill. I'm going to go. The lower part of Nakasero is the business area. The upper part of Nakasero is the business area. So we have just the green little buildings. That's the Owino Market, the largest market in Uganda. Oh, I'm not sure. So the Owino Market. So basically, this is the general outlook of the famous Gaddafi Mosque. Well, there's a lot of history behind its making, as you heard. And there's also the tower which makes this place very famous. Because it's the only place you can go in Kampala and have a 360-degree view of the city when you go up there. Around the mosque, there are people selling stuff, food stuff. You can buy some Islamic stuff here. You can buy some drinks. You can buy some Islamic outfits. Well, basically, that's what the Gaddafi Mosque is about. And then there's also an institution. There is the Islamic University next to the Gaddafi Mosque. Yeah, right there is the Islamic University. Thank you so much for watching this video. I hope you enjoyed it. Leave a comment.
