Arab donates land for Swaminarayan temple in UAE

Posted Star Web Media Tuesday, July 9, 2013 ,

Ahamdabad.Swaminarayan will soon get an abode in Abu Dhabi on land donated by an Arab Muslim.

The Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) is planning to set up a temple there after a team visited the United Arab Emirates capital last month.

Sources say a Muslim businessman has donated five acres of land adjoining a mosque to BAPS for setting up the temple. The temple will have photographs of Swaminarayan due to restrictions on idol worship. "Talks are on and we have not decided anything yet," says a BAPS source.

The team visited Abu Dhabi on an invitation from Nazem Al Kudsi, chief executive officer of Invest AD, an investment company.
