★★★★★8 months agoThe local moslem brothers are very pleasant, when we come into their mosque, they show their good character as a moslem like humble, friendly and any good deeds we see... the mosque is quite clean, tidy, and well managed. May Allah Azzawajalla give me rizqy to visit this mosque again with family

★★★★★8 months agoMashallah very clean and beautiful masjid. I am a tourist and went for fajr salaat. Some brothers were still in the masjid until ishraq reading Quran. They were very helpful, gave their contact and very very helpful in guiding where to find good halal food. Alhamdullilah
