Masjid Al Hana' — Attraction in Kedah

Masjid Al Hana’ in Kuah, Langkawi, is a convenient mosque for performing Friday prayers, located near Pekan Rabu Kuah with ample parking space nearby. I visited on a Friday and found the mosque quite spacious and well-maintained, making it a comfortable place to perform prayers.

During my visit, there was a notable presence of Arab worshippers, including women who came for prayers. However, I noticed that there wasn’t a designated area for ladies to pray during Friday prayers. Fortunately, after speaking with one of the mosque staff, they kindly arranged a closed-off section to accommodate them, which was a thoughtful gesture.

One of my favourite parts is that there’s a lovely park nearby. After praying, I went for a walk there, and it felt like I was walking with a sense of clarity and calmness, reflecting on the moment. It’s a simple but beautiful way to extend the peace and mindfulness from your visit to the mosque.
