The Rosengård Mosque, which belongs to the Islamic Association in Malmö, has opened its premises for children, youth, and their families during the Easter break week. The prayer hall has temporarily been converted into an activity area offering table tennis, football, FIFA games, painting, and various light competitions. Activities are held every day between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM during the Easter break week.
According to SVT Skåne, a mosque representative described organizing activities so children can meet and be together in a positive environment during the Easter break. The mosque's organizers see the Easter break as an opportunity to offer children something extra, even though they do not celebrate Easter themselves. According to SVT Skåne, the representative further explained that while they do not celebrate Easter, it is still the children's holiday, and they aim to create activities for them to spend their break in a safe and positive place.
According to SVT Skåne, a participant in the activities described it as very fun to be able to play with friends, noting she would otherwise have had to be at home the whole break. The number of children and families participating in the activities has not been confirmed, and it is unclear what the full name or official title of the speaker is. Additionally, it is unknown whether there are any costs or fees associated with participating, how long the mosque has been organizing such activities during school breaks, or what specific safety measures are in place at the activity area.
