Temecula Mosque Leader Steps Down


The battle over the mosque in Temecula takes another interesting turn. . .

Leader of Islamic Center Steps Down

Mahmoud Harmoush, who led the congregation as it sought permits to build a mosque, will no longer lead the group.

The leader of a local Muslim community stepped down, a board member for the congregation said today.

Mahmoud Harmoush, a Temecula man who was the imam for the Islamic Center of Temecula Valley, stepped down on Feb. 21, according to Boardmember Mohammed Suleiman.

The former imam's contract expired in February, and he declined to accept a new one, Suleiman said.
