· 3 min read · 361 views

GHAZNI CITY (Pajhwok): Residents of southern Ghazni province say the ancient Baba Haji mosque in this capital city is on the brink of collapse and needs serious attention from the government.

The mosque, located in the Qala-e-Ghaznin area west of Ghazni's old city, is considered by historians to be the first Muslim mosque in Ghazni. About 2500 years ago, the Buddhists used it a place of worship.

Residents and cultural figures in Ghazni have expressed concern over the dilapidated condition of the historic mosque, saying it would collapse if the government did not repair it.
