Masjid As-Syakirin stands as a testament to faith in the Cipinang Bali area of Jakarta Timur. Originally a modest structure from the 1970s, the mosque underwent a complete transformation in the mid-1980s. The renovations brought about a beautiful, multi-story building that serves as a hub for the community. Masjid As-Syakirin’s striking presence is hard to miss along Jalan Inspeksi Saluran Tarum Barat. The bustling street in front of the mosque played a crucial role during its renovation. Funds were collected from passing vehicles, a common practice at the time. This community effort transformed As-Syakirin from a regular mosque into the grand Masjid Jami it is today. The mosque even boasts a website, www.asy-syakirin.com, although it isn’t frequently updated. The website aimed to share the mosque’s activities and connect with the wider community. This reflects Masjid As-Syakirin’s continuous growth and adaptation to modern times. The green dome, a prominent feature, stands as a symbol of hope and peace, welcoming worshippers from all walks of life.
