41 Spitfire Place Rutherford NSW 2320

The post or what I refer to as dribble from Donna is factually incorrect and should not have ever been made public given the offensive nature of the post.
Let's break down the concerns raised, ignoring the obvious grammatical errors.
1. The location was to be in an Industrial Estate with the closest residential property approx. 500m away. It is not an Urban area, it is Industrial where many trucks and workers come and go on a regular basis.
2. Praying 5 times a day does not occur at the mosque, particularly when most people have jobs, so your concerns around extra traffic and noise is rubbish, particularly when this traffic is not in your vicinity.
3. Friday prayer time occurs around 1pm. If you are employed you are at work and if you have kids they are at school, please explain how this time would impact most people?
4. It's creates more culture to reside in the area? I take it you only finished year 10 and dropped out based on your your inability to form sentences that make sense. When you have islamophobes such as yourself which is the real reason you opposed the mosque. It is no wonder they don't integrate and stick with those who value/respect their beliefs and culture.
5. A mosque is a place of worship, just like a church, might be worth speaking to someone with knowledge on the subject rather than your misjudged google searches.
6. A mosque has nothing to do with your beliefs, culture, traditions and freedom. After all what traditions do you as an ancestor of convicts to this country have?
7. There are mosques in Newcastle, I don't recall any issues there.
8. Rutherford - vibrant and peaceful? Break and enters, drugs at every corner, people only live their because it is unaffordable for them to live in areas like East Maitland, Ashtonfield, Bolwarra, Lorn etc.
9. Everyone is entitled to their opinion under freedom fo speech, unfortunately some people's opinions are best kept to themselves as they add no value and look to divide instead of bring community together.
The purpose of this post is to highlight their are two sides to every story, most of the Muslims in the community are actually the Doctors and Dentists, run small businesses you visit. They don't live in the suburb however work in the vicinity. They contribute more to the community than you know.
We are all locals in the community regardless of our religious beliefs...

Imran my post was neither offensive or an uneducated one. I have had conflicts with this culture several occasions regarding the building of mosques in our towns.
As you say prayer time is at 1.00pm on a Friday (that is most certainly NOT the only time you pray so taqueria is clearly at play here. You will also have meetings on social occasions. A call to prayer will also be announced and as for the 1.00 time frame being when most people are at work or school, obviously you haven’t observed the area because most people today work shift work, work from home or home school. Noise travels and traffic congestion is another issue.
As for being ‘islamophobic’, that insinuates I have a fear of the religion/ belief which I do not, on the contrary I challenge it. That’s what you hate, that some question it’s sincerity. Yes you contribute to our society but that is no different than any other human being that has immigrated here and they do not push their faith on the community to erect structures that go against our values or beliefs do they???? They integrate peacefully and equally not look upon those who chose to follow a more traditional faith with contempt. I do not welcome a faith I know is radical in its faith and encourages its followers to strictly abide by a prophet who encouraged torture, violence and death on all non believers. Don’t dare tell me he did not. Your faith believes in allowing the genital mutilation of its young women yes? It allows the male to dominate the female in marriage yes? It encourages arranged marriages that result in older men marrying young girls yes? It condones a Fatwa on those who challenge, blaspheme or publicity condemn your faith yes?
This is not compatible with our western laws or morals so no I don’t want anything in my town that does. I know from many cities in the world who have welcomed it only to be very sorry in the end because they were peaceful in small numbers but in large they started to force their beliefs on the rest and used violence to do so.
You can deny this all you want to Imran, you can call me uneducated to make yourself and the majority feel more superior and you may think they’ll question my criticisms but the evidence is there for all to see if they want to look.
My ancestors as you say ‘what did they contribute to this land’…everything you see today that’s what, the very place you live was carved by the convicts and pioneers you arrogantly scoff at. The Anzacs that defended this nation came from every town in this country so you need to be the one to educate yourself on this country you are extremely lucky to live because it’s on the sweat, blood and sacrifice of my ancestors and many others that you do.

Disregard Donna please

The mosque is in an industrial area . No one will be within earshot on Fridays and anyway all calls to prayer are inside and can't be heard except by muslims in the immediate vicinity. Muslims are good people and should not have to put up with hate campaigns by trouble makers. Wallsend mosque is overflowing every Friday as a lot of (paying) students go there. Foreign students bring a lot on income into this country. Mayfield is pretty full too. People from this area have to travel to Mayfield. Opening the mosque at Rutherford should not inconvenience people in any way whatsoever. It's a quiet area. It has it's own car park. Workers have donated part of their own income to fund this project. They are not trying to convert anybody. They just want to be left in peace. Nobody CHOOSES to be born in a Muslim country or chooses to have a certain faith any more than Australians choose their own origins.
When I travelled to Canada I was treated with disrespect because I was Australian. Australians have a worldwide reputation for racism. I had to write and explain that not all Australians are racist.
