I finally managed to have one night free to break fast at home so I headed to Masjid Temenggong Daeng Ibrahim for Isyak & Terawih. My uncle has a “family tree” book which says that I’m distantly related to this fella. Like great(x20 or 30) uncle or something. Wow! No wonder I’m such a royal pain in the ***.
Anyway as many of us know, this mosque is unique in the because it is being run by the Johor Government. I guess it’s a diplomatic understanding between the 2 governments. A few of the Johor Sultanate’s kin are buried near the mosque. The Imam on duty at the mosque is posted here from Malaysia. I remember I met last year’s Imam and he said he was Muar, a relatively close town to my grandparents “kampung”
I never realized what a big prayer hall it was until today. All of us jemaah could barely fill up the first saf for Isyak. Parking here doesn’t seem to be much a problem since the mosque has it’s own compound and residential and office building behind the mosque. I love the pacing of the Imam too.
Recommended, If you have a car of course.
