Bosnia: Serb-ruined historic mosque rebuilt
By: Raza Ali
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina: Muslims in
Bosnia have begun rebuilding a 16th-century mosque, damaged in
1993 by Bosnian Serbs who controlled the town of Banja Luka.
The Ferhard-pasha mosque was built in 1579 and survived two
world wars before being declared a historic monument under
UNESCO's protection about 30 years ago.
However, explosives were set off under its walls during the
1991-95 ethnic war in the former Yugoslavia.
Rebuilding of the mosque, one of the most famous for its
beauty in the Balkans, will cost $9.8 million.

better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the

get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
