Sheikh Rumani Ba 'Alawi Masjid (Somali: Masaajidka Shaykh Rumani Ba 'Alawi, also known as Masaajidka Rumaaniga or Masaajidka Aw Shukumaan) is a small mosque found in the historical Hamar Weyne district in Mogadishu. [1]
Overview
[edit]The mosque locally to as "Aw Shukuman" isn't an easy mosque to get to, it can only be reached through a series of long winding ancient alleyways. During a recent renovation of the mosque, 2 important artefacts were lost. One being the a piece of wood with 822 AH (which roughly corresponds to 1419 AD), the other being an iron ring hanging from one of the old beams that was being replaced.[2] The ring was similar to those found in the older homes in the neighbourhood, said to have been used to hang lanterns.
