TENNESSEE MOSQUE APPROVED TO OPEN
July 19, 2012 - United States
A US judge overturned a lower court's order in order to allow the congregation to use their mosque in Rutherford county, Tennessee. A lower court had previously ruled that the county could not issue an occupancy permit for the mosque, but the representatives of the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro sued the county and won the right to use the building just in time for worshipers to gather for the month of Ramadan. Despite ruling in the Islamic Center's favor, county officials stated that they would be unable to complete final inspections that would make the building ready for use. Residents of the community filed a lawsuit against the mosque in 2010 stating that Islam was not a real religion. The US justice department filed a lawsuit in the mosque's favor stating that the county was holding it to different standards than other places of worship.
