The mosque was clean and it was quite welcoming even to non-Muslims. The Friday prayer sermon was delivered in a mixture of English and classical Arabic. There are multiple prayer rooms spread across 4 floors. Most of the attendees appeared to be South Asian and South East Asian, with a number people from other parts of the world as well as a few Japanese locals.
I was informed that there is a second mosque in the area called the Itoshima Masjid and Islamic Culture Center. Might be worth visiting for Muslim residents of Kyushu or anyone interested in...
Read moreTo Masjid Al Nour Fukuoka. Di Fukuoka kayanya cuma ada itu aja ya masjidnya ohya cari makan yg ada label halalnya juga sulit di Fukuoka dibandingkan di Tokyo . Back to Masjid, penginapan kami deket dengan subway Tojinmachi, cari di google ada 2 rekomendasi subway nih (kalau kamu nak gahul KRL miriplah sistemnya) bisa ambil Kagoshima Line turun di Hakozaki, terus jalan 2 menit, atau ambil Hakozaki Line turun di Hakozakikyudai Mae, jalan 10 menit. Kami memutuskan untuk turun di Hakozakikyudai Mae karena jalannya lebih jauh biar sekalian jalan-jalan(dan lebih murah). Ohya di Map yg disediain di subway itu udah ada loh Masjidnya jadi tinggal tunjuk. Nah setelah turun Hakozakikyudai Mae (lupa gate berapa, tanya aja ya sekalian) ke lampu merah yg di kiri, terus kiri lagi (ketemu ministop) terus ikutin yg di peta deh. Lurus aja sampe ketemu persimpangan gede banget belok kiri lagi, kubah nya udah keliatan kok.
Nah di deket masjid juga ada taman yg kecil dengan sakura yg cantik banget ohya saya di Fukuoka pada 21-31 Maret 2018 pas Sakura baru mekar, tapi karena angin cukup sering, banyak sakura yg berguguran. Ohya pas mampir di taman ketemu sama orang yang pakai jaket PPI Fukuoka.
Semoga kalau ada yg ke Fukuoka bisa mampir ke Masjid nya ya :D ohya tempatnya juga cukup luas, dan yg paling penting, peaceful place as always. You can go to this masjid by subway from Hakozakikyudai Mae gate or Hakozaki gate with different line (and different price). There are two floor the 1st for the brother muslim and 2nd floor for the sister. It is big and peaceful place, this masjid also has several book collection about islam and mukena (for woman praying clothes). I was really...
