Does God Exist?

Many beings are invisible to human eyes. Although we are not able to see them, we have the ability to understand their existence through their actions or through the results of their action. Similarly, we may not see the God, but we know the existence of God in the same manner.

For example, when we see dense black smoke clouding the sky, we understand that it is coming from a stubborn fire beyond the mountains. We don’t need to see the fire itself. The smoke and its quality are enough to ponder upon.

When we see a beautifully designed and nicely decorated house with paintings on the walls with cute illustrations, we understand that this house is a work of a brilliant, skilful and great architect. Although we don’t see him, we know that the house was once built by the architect.

We are amazed by the art in the exhibition showcasing

London Eye architects to design new Cambridge Mosque
Award-winning architects Marks Barfield, working in association with Professor Keith Critchlow, have been appointed by the Muslim Academic Trust to design the new Cambridge mosque. Marks Barfield are internationally-renowned for striking projects such as the London Eye and the Kew Treetop Walkway.

On behalf of the Trust, Chairman Tim Winter said:

‘Moving the mosque to this new location represents a hugely exciting opportunity for Cambridge.  Working with Marks Barfield, we can create on the Mill Road site a superb place of worship to replace the overcrowded facility on Mawson Road.
