    I am a proud muslim but I owe other religions a great respect perhaps I wouldn't want it to be rebuilt instead I would change it to be a museum and reserve all the history hidden in there

    The Mogadishu Cathedral is a Roman Catholic. Cathedral located in downtown Mogadishu, Somalia. The church had a elementary school run by nuns.. In Somalia Christianity and Judaism was a minority religion in Muslim-majority. Also, Somalis were not religious people before the war, their more loyal patriot to their nationalism. Before the war life in Mogadishu was mellow relaxed enjoyable beautiful... we had Italian butchers, Italian bakeries, italian coffee shops ,Italian grocery stores cereals etc::) . Before the war, we all lived next to each other with peace and love Whites, Blacks, Browns, Asians, Indians, Arabs. Somalia had many people from different nationalities living.

    Remarkable to see. Sadly majority of the structure destroyed but some relics have actually escaped the destruction including a magnificent carved out piece near the ceiling. The ceiling is however missing. One can only hope that one day this building is restored along with the nearby buildings that would have been beautiful once upon a time.
