Hira Mosque (Japanese: 行徳モスク) is a mosque in Ichikawa, Chiba Prefecture, Japan.
History
In 1997, ICOJ established the mosque in Gyotoku, Ichikawa city of Chiba ken by purchasing a two-storey building which was a bar earlier. During 2003-2004 the mosque building was reconstructed looking at the need to increase the capacity as well as poor condition of the building due to the age of building. The new Hira Mosque has been built, with a capacity of over 200 persons.[1]
