I refer to the article ‘Still praying for a place to pray’ (January 15).

In my opinion, Bader Zina is expecting the authorities to give him a government property, where he will have no Planning Authority problems, or some kind of miracle. All he has to do is search for the right property, if possible in the outskirts of a town or village where parking will not be a problem for the residents, do the promise of sale, apply for the required permit at the Planning Authority and if the permit is not granted cancel the sale and continue searching for another property.

If his demands are not met, I advise him not to resort to provocation, as in the case in Msida (photo) and in front of the Preluna Hotel, in Sliema, when a group of Muslims were evicted from a block of flats after they turned a rented flat into a mosque.
