Masjid Al Muttaqin

As a mosque in Gunung Kendil, this mosque is part of a larger fabric that stretches across Indonesia.

That wider history lends it a quiet sense of belonging. At Masjid Al Muttaqin, you can expect to find Eid prayers, Friday congregational prayer, five daily prayers happening through the week.
