Old Friday mosque is also called Malegu Mosque or Friday Muslim Church. This mosque has a long history and was built in 1656. Although it has a long history, it is well preserved. It is the oldest mosque in Maldives. It's worth visiting.
Opposite the presidential residence; someone nursed us, asked if we were Islamists, and after receiving the negative answer, kindly refused us to enter the temple, but a sip of water from the well at the door, motioning us to wash our faces and hands with water, may be to let us also get God's blessing. The mosque has a small garden on one side and a cemetery on the other.
Hukuru Miskiy, or the Old Friday Mosque in Malé, is a cultural gem. The intricate coral stone architecture and historical significance make it a must-visit. However, limited accessibility and preservation challenges slightly impact the overall experience. Still, an essential stop for history enthusiasts exploring Maldives.
In Ramadan in June, many mosques in Male can see pious prayers. Such a large mosque and so many pious believers make me feel that a country of faith is very worthy of respect. On Friday, the mosque is very worthy of visiting. Under the feeling of state of mind...
Not far away, it's a very historic old Friday mosque. The mosque, the oldest mosque in the country, is said to have been built of coral stones with various decorations and Koran scriptures engraved on it. Non-Muslims need permission from the Ministry of Islamic Affairs to enter. It is dark and we have not entered. It is said that the mosque was built on the basis of an abandoned Buddhist temple, so instead of facing Mecca to the northwest, it was facing the sunset to the west. So when the believers prayed, they had to place striped carpets at a certain angle in the corner of the mosque to pray in the right direction. The fence is so low that it's easy to photograph inside. When I saw the cemetery inside, I felt unable to take pictures, but when I met a little black, he told us that we could take pictures, so I left a picture of it before it was completely dark.
