بمناسبة افتتاح المنتدى ووضع منارة مسجد الخميس اليكم هذا الخبر هل يعلم اهل البحرين ان قطعة من سقف هذا المسجد وهو العمود الذي كان في السقف قد وضع في كنيسة في امريكا وبالتحديد في كنيسة في نيويورك. وإذا كنت في زيارة الى الغرفة التي يقطنها المبشرين في للكنيسة البروتستانتية في نيويورك، يمكن أن تظهر لك المطرقة مطرقة مصنوعة منشعاع من الخشب الذي كان مرة واحدة في سقف هذا المسجد (مسجد الخميس). وسقطت قطعة من الحزم القديمة على الأرض. وهذا نص كلام المؤلف الذي زار البحرين في القرن السابع عشر وهو يشرح سوق الخميس. A busy market is held at "Suk el Khamis" every Thursday all the year round, rain or shine (and it generally is shine in Arabia), out in the open air near the ruins of an old mosque about three miles distant from Menama village at Bahrein where the missionaries live. The two tall minarets on the mosque can be seen from the market. It is one of the oldest mosques in East Arabia, and was built several hundred years ago and rebuilt several times. Now it is no longer used to pray in nor does the call to prayer ever ring out from the minarets. The fact is that one Moslem sect after another took possession of the building, and in the religious disputes that arose the building itself went into decay. One part of the mosque is now used for a goat pen. The gray square stones of which the mosque was once built are scattered about and serve as seats for visitors, and every traveller who visits Bahrein climbs up one of the minarets and gets a fine view of the islands. If you can read the old writing carved on the stones in Arabic script, you can see how often this mosque has changed hands between the rival parties in the Moslem world called Shiahs and Sunnis, and if you should ever visit the missionary rooms of the Reformed Church in New York, the secretary there can show you a gavel or mallet made from a beam of wood which was once in the roof of this very mosque. A piece of the old beam fell to the ground and was made into a mallet to show that the religion of Islam in Arabia is decaying and that missionaries to Moslems need not be afraid to enter the country of Mohammed.

Every Thursday morning the plain around this mosque is a busy scene. How often I have ridden down to this market on a donkey or walked in the heat of the sun and have seen a thousand or more people crowded together in all their bright coloured garments, men and women and children, busily engaged in trade, in play, or in quarrels over the price of an article ! One man, perhaps, brings a load of water jars from the village of AH. Another has a big donkey load of ropes or mats for sale, and still another brings great baskets of melons, pomegranates, dates, limes and vegetables. Women, covered over with their heavy black veils and looking very mischievously through little peep holes for their eyes, crouch on the ground before their little open-air stands where they sell cheap jewellery and trinkets or tiny bottles of perfume and black. |
