Quran untouched. That’s the whispered legend of Mushola Al-Hasanah. Nestled in Kemayoran Jakarta Pusat this unassuming mosque survived a devastating fire. A fire that engulfed 543 buildings in January 2025. The blaze consumed homes and businesses. Yet Mushola Al-Hasanah stood defiant. Its walls singed. Its roof scarred. But inside a miracle.
Mushola Al-Hasanah isn’t just a place of prayer. It’s a testament to faith. It’s a place of refuge. A beacon of hope. It was even a temporary shelter for 1797 people displaced by the fire. They sought solace within its resilient walls.
In 1983 Try Sutrisno inaugurated Mushola Al-Hasanah. He was the Vice President of Indonesia. A simple plaque commemorates this historical event. It’s a detail often overlooked. Yet it underscores the mosque’s deep roots in the community.
The fire spared more than just the building. A wooden cabinet holding the Quran survived unscathed. The cabinet stood amidst charred debris. Its glass front intact. Its contents untouched. This is more than a coincidence. It’s a story that’s been shared on social media. It’s a testament to the power of faith.
The Mushola Al-Hasanah’s resilience offers comfort. It provides a space for reflection. It’s a place where the community gathers. It is a vital part of Kemayoran’s fabric. It remains a symbol of hope amidst adversity. A place where prayers are answered. A place where miracles happen. A place where the community finds strength. A place where the Quran remains untouched. The Mushola Al-Hasanah. A true testament to faith.
