Патрясающие арабески на стенах, неповторимая атмосфера, удивительно приветливый смотритель. Мне, как христианке, никогда не бывавшей внутри мечети, было очень интересно. Рассказ имама об основах ислама поразил: между христианством и исламом гораздо больше общего, чем различного. Приятно было, что увидев наш интерес, смотритель пригласил нас, рассматривающих мечеть со стороны, войти, очень терпимо принял наш вполне неправоверный вид и доброжелательно нам многое о мечети рассказал. Рекомендую посетить...

Удивительная находка в центре преимущественно христианской республики. Как говорится в Википедии: "В 1934 году городской совет принял решение уничтожить суннитскую мечеть. Командир 25-й татарской роты 84-го кавалерийского полка Я. И. Беткенев отдал приказ своим подчинённым с оружием в руках встать на охрану мечети. Власти уступили и дали мечети статус памятника архитектуры. Затем мечеть была превращена в «антирелигиозный музей»". В настоящее время мечеть снова функционирует по её прямому назначению.
