(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The Raja of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Putra Jamalullail, last night officially opened the Al-Hussain Floating Mosque in Kuala Perlis, a busy gateway for tourists heading to the legendary island of Langkawi. The mosque, which has its prayer hall extending out to sea, was built at a cost of about RM12 million through the sponsorship of businessman Tan Sri Mohd Ariffin Yusof and his family. The mosque can accommodate up to 1,000 worshippers at any one time. The twin minarets of the mosque will light up in different colours during the dawn and night prayer times, and thus guide fishermen at sea on the time for prayers./129
