“Another AC unit?” someone asks. Here we are at Masjid At-Taqwa in Batam. It’s more than just a place of worship. It is a community hub.
Masjid At-Taqwa serves the people. It is a place for prayer. It is also a place for connection. The mosque’s story reflects Batam’s community spirit. It shows the bond between government and residents.
In June 2024, a special event took place here. Jefridin M.Pd. visited Masjid At-Taqwa. He represented Batam’s Mayor Muhammad Rudi. The visit was a silaturahmi. This is a gathering to strengthen bonds. People from Bumi Kencana and Batuaji attended. Community leaders and local officials joined too. The event aimed to foster unity.
Jefridin expressed his gratitude. He thanked the community leaders and organizers. Their efforts made the event possible. The attendees applauded his words.
This silaturahmi was more than a meeting. It was a chance to build relationships. It improved communication between the government and the people. During the event, Jefridin gave a gift to Masjid At-Taqwa. The mosque received new AC units and CCTV cameras.
Jefridin hoped the gifts would help everyone. He wanted the mosque to be a comfortable place. He said the AC would cool the room and hearts. This would make worship more pleasant.
Beyond the gifts, there was fellowship. People shared stories. They strengthened their bonds. Residents appreciated the government’s support. They felt thankful for the attention.
Jefridin encouraged everyone to stay united. He urged them to work together. Together they could build a better Batam. He hoped the silaturahmi would become a regular event. It would strengthen ties. It would improve communication. All this would serve the common good.
Think about this as you stand here. Masjid At-Taqwa represents unity. It embodies community spirit. It highlights the importance of working together.
While not the grandest structure, Masjid At-Taqwa Cendana provides solace. Another Masjid At-Taqwa lies in Perumahan Cendana Tahap 2. It stands open all year. It welcomes worshipers at any hour.
