Masjid Al-Mawaddah
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Al-Mawaddah Mosque (Malay: Masjid Al-Mawaddah, Arabic:مسجد المودة) is a mosque located in Sengkang, Singapore. It is scheduled to open in late 2008.
[edit] Etymology
The name is derived from the Arabic word, مودة which literally means affectionate; given by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore(MUIS). The name was taken from the Quran Surah Ar-Rum verse 21:
"And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell In tranquillity with them, and He has put love and Mercy between your (hearts): Verily In that are Signs for those who reflect."
