Mushola Al Mukhlisin

Amidst the vibrant tapestry of Jakarta, discover the Mushola Al Mukhlisin. This mosque, nestled within the Perumahan Deplu complex in Gandaria Selatan, Cilandak, stands as a testament to faith and community. The Mushola Al Mukhlisin’s story begins on October 16, 2014. On this day, the mosque was officially inaugurated by the Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Ir. H. Susilo Siswoutomo, who also served as the head of the mosque’s construction committee. The name “Al Mukhlisin” itself translates to “those who are sincere,” reflecting the spirit of devotion within its walls. The mosque’s architecture draws inspiration from the Ottoman era in Turkey. Four slender blue and white minarets, reaching approximately 17 meters high, grace each corner of the building. Three domes, one central and two smaller ones, crown the structure, all painted in a serene blue. The side walls facing the street feature decorative rosters arranged to form windows, complete with canopies. Inside, the Mushola Al Mukhlisin boasts four levels. The basement serves as a parking area and houses restrooms and ablution facilities. The ground floor provides additional prayer space, while the second floor mezzanine houses the main prayer hall. A third-floor mezzanine offers yet more room for prayer. The prayer hall’s interior is adorned with intricate Jepara-style carvings on the doors, showcasing Islamic floral and star motifs. While seventeen pillars stand within the space, they are painted in a cream-colored marble pattern, enhancing the hall’s beauty rather than detracting from it. The main prayer hall covers approximately 200 square meters, with the ground and third-floor spaces adding another 300 square meters, accommodating approximately 1,000 worshippers. Above, the three domes feature stunning calligraphy on a green background. The central dome, with a diameter of 6 meters, displays a painting of clouds against a blue sky, centered around the word “Allah.” A twelve-light crystal chandelier hangs from its center. The smaller domes, each 3 meters in diameter, retain their framework and colorful glass, adding to the mosque’s unique aesthetic. The Mushola Al Mukhlisin blends beauty, functionality, and a deep sense of devotion.
