The **Lami [Mosque](/source/Mosque)** is one of the six mosques in [Ulcinj](/source/Ulcinj), [Montenegro](/source/Montenegro).[1]

## History

It was built by [Hajji](/source/Hajji) Alia in 1689. The Friday [Khutbah](/source/Khutbah) is given in three languages, in [Arabic](/source/Arabic_language), [Albanian](/source/Albanian_language) and [Bosnian](/source/Bosnian_language) language. Next to the mosque is the *gasulhane*, where the bodies of the dead are washed in preparation for burial. The funeral *xhenaze* [namaz](/source/Salat) follows washing.

In 1968, the anti-[Albanian](/source/Albanians) [Yugoslav](/source/SFR_Yugoslavia) government wanted to destroy the mosque, but the bravery of [Imam Ibrahim Llolla](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Imam_Ibrahim_Llolla&action=edit&redlink=1) to stand in front of the [Yugoslavian](/source/Yugoslavians) police saved the mosque, as he was ready to sacrifice himself for the mosque. However, the [Yugoslavian](/source/Yugoslavians) police destroyed another, the [Meraja Mosque](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meraja_Mosque&action=edit&redlink=1).
