“In 1972 a vision took root” a thought about Masjid Al Muaawanah. Here we stand before a place born from community spirit. Masjid Al Muaawanah is more than just a building. It is a testament to faith in Jakarta Pusat.
Masjid Al Muaawanah stands on Jalan Cempaka Putih Barat IV. This location has been its home since its founding. Envision the early days. In 1972 the community began building this house of worship.
The land beneath Masjid Al Muaawanah spans 1,200 square meters. The building itself covers 1,850 square meters. This provides ample space for worshipers and activities. The land has a Girik status.
More than 200 people gather here for prayers. Five muazin call the faithful to prayer. Two khotib deliver sermons that inspire and guide.
Imagine the schedule of prayers. The daily rhythm of Jakarta includes the call to prayer. The schedule is precise. It marks the hours for Shubuh Dhuhur Ashar Maghrib and Isya. These times connect the community to their faith.
Consider the words from the Quran. “Apabila kamu telah menyelesaikan sholat berdzikirlah kepada Allah.” This verse reminds worshipers to remember Allah always. Whether standing sitting or lying down. The verse emphasizes the importance of prayer. “Sesungguhnya sholat itu merupakan kewajiban.” Prayer is an obligation at specific times.
Masjid Al Muaawanah is a testament to community. It is a house of worship for the people of Jakarta Pusat. Its doors are open to all.
