Jamik Nurul Falah Mosque || Bungkaih, Muara Batu, Aceh Utara

Assalamualaikum wr.wb.
Dear friends, how are you today?, hopefully in good condition.

Jamik Nurul Falah Mosque

Mosques are one of the places of worship for Muslims around the world. It is not surprising that there are many mosques in Aceh, Indonesia, because this is one of the Muslim-majority provinces. Almost every village has its own mosque for worship. If the village is small, then there is a place of worship that is smaller than the mosque called Meunasah (Mushalla), but in Meunasah Friday prayers are not held but usually to establish congregations for fard prayers other than Friday prayers.

Today, I again share with all my friends a mosque located in North Aceh, precisely in Bungkaih village, Muara Batu sub-district, North Aceh district. This mosque is called the Nurul Falah Jamik Mosque. This mosque has its own characteristics such as having an oval round dome almost filling the circle and colored in gold, the dome also has its style. For more details, let's peel the details of this mosque one by one:

Nurul Falah Mosque signboard

From the front of the mosque, precisely on the side of the Medan-Banda Aceh road, there is a mosque signboard that is written complete with villages to sub-districts. This signboard is made of concrete which is connected directly to the mosque fence and right next to the gate. The mosque gate has not been made well, maybe in the process of being made.

Let's continue inside to see the whole mosque. We will see this magnificent mosque after entering the fence. Here is a picture of the mosque from the Northeast corner.

Nurul Falah Jamik Mosque from the front

From the picture above, we can see that this mosque has a fairly large yard, especially in the north and east. From the north the courtyard directly faces the Medan Banda Aceh road, while from the east the mosque courtyard directly faces the road to Banda Malikussaleh Air.

Next, let's enter the mosque. Inside the mosque certainly has a clean room that is used for worship and there are several facilities for the convenience of worship.

Mosque room

This magnificent mosque has its own characteristics, but they are not far from the characteristics of other mosques in Aceh. On the inner wall (west side of the mosque) there are calligraphic paintings and Islamic motifs. In the center of the west side of the mosque there is a special room for the imam to stand who will lead the congregation. There is also a small pulpit that can be moved. The pulpit will be used for the preacher during Friday prayers and Hari Raya prayers.

Loudspeakers and fans

To maintain comfort in terms of conditions, this mosque provides several fans installed on the mosque pole. There are also loudspeakers so that the voice of the imam and the one leading the khatib reaches the entire congregation in the mosque.

Separating female and male worshipers

When there are female worshipers, there is a cloth barrier to prevent mixing. This barrier can be moved around as needed.

Mosque information board

In the southern part of the mosque there is a building for ablutions and toilets. On the wall of this building there is a special mading (information board) about the mosque.

ablutions and toilets

The ablutions and toilets are very clean and well-maintained. The ablution area consists of two parts, there is a pool and some taps.

Stairs to the mosque from the ablution area

The building is connected to the mosque by a roof and at the entrance to the mosque there is a staircase complete with a staircase wall and green carpet.

Parking lot

Some parking lots are also available there, precisely in the eastern part of the mosque. However, not all worshipers can park their vehicles there because the place is small. The rest of the congregation can park their vehicles in the courtyard of the mosque.

Hall in front of the mosque

To the north of the mosque is a hall that may be used for recitations, resting places and so on. This hall is relatively small and is unlikely to be used for large meetings, unless the meetings are small.
