The Golden Dome Mosque (The Dian Al Mahri Masque)
The Dian Al Mahri Mosque also known as The Golden Dome Mosque has became phenomenon mosque in Indonesia since it officially open for the public. The name of the mosque is retrieved from the founder Mrs. Dian Al Mahri.
There are many gossips around the mosque not only because of the dome that is layered by the pure golden but also because of the founder. Nobody knows about her before. However, since she built the magnificent mosque, her name as famous as the mosque.
Some people told she is very rich because she has land in Brunei Darussalam that contains crude oil. So, she is become very rich because of that. While some people also said it is because her Arabian husband. Almost every Indonesian people think that Arabian people are very rich. So that, they guess she inherits million dollars from her husband. Nobody knows which story is true.
Alright, I don’t want to discuss too much about this matter. I am more concern about the beautiful of the mosque. So that, I visited the mosque couples weeks ago.
I and my sons were going to the mosque to proof the gossip that we have heard. Rode my motorcycle, I went to the mosque with big question. “Is that the gossip true?” Or “Is it as beautiful as people said?”
It took around 45 minutes from my home to the location in Depok area. Along the journey, I scrutinized the area that changes lots. Many years ago, this area was very shaded with fruit tress around. The street was in very good condition. Now it is very dry with shop buildings along the street. Additionally, dust and rubbish make the area getting worst.
Short story, I arrived on the location which is very crowded with the tourists. They came from many areas in Indonesia and uses coach to get there. Well, my first impression to this place was it has become the tourist destination. Some people took the pictures with the mosque as the background. While others amazed to the architecture of the mosque.
I walked in to the mosque. Inside the mosque, I amazed the beautiful of the mosque’s interior. Some people whispered that the interior is same as the interior of The Nabawi Mosque in Saudi Arabia. Well, it is as beautiful as the rumours I’ve heard.
After satisfied looked at the interior, I took some pictures to enshrine my memory with this mosque. Around the altar, some people did sunnah prayer while others red the holy qur’an. After I did Asar prayer, I exited to the mosque’s garden.
Again, I took some pictures and walked around the mosque to get the best spot for the pictures. Unfortunately, some people did the same activities so that it was very difficult to get best angle for photography. Furthermore, the weather was not good, cloudy and shower. However, it was not barred them to enjoy their activities.
It was almost dusk when I and my sons came back to our home. When I passed the exit street to the parking area, there are so many sellers along the street. The sell almost everything as the souvenirs, not only related to the mosque but also food and textile. For example dodol Garut, Taro or Moslems clothes.
Well, unique and very impressive for me. And my conclusion the mosque is the symbol of the glory of Islam. Even though the founder is very mysterious, I still admired her as the person who care about the glory of Islam.
