Masjid Ahmad Ibrahim, or Ahmad Ibrahim Mosque is a mosque in Singapore. ==History== Masjid Ahmad Ibrahim was built in 1955 and sits on a Temporary Occupation License (TOL) land. It was then known as Surau Nee Soon Jalan Ulu Seletar and its first Imam was Imam Hj Katsir. In 1959, Encik Ahmad Ibrahim, Member of Parliament for Sembawang Nee Soon and Labour Minister, helped upgrade and improve the facilities of the surau. In 1961, the surau was upgraded to the status of a Masjid to meet the growing number of Muslims in the area. In a vote for a change of name for the Masjid, the name of Encik Ahmad Ibrahim was chosen to recognise his contributions to the Masjid. The first Friday prayers was held soon after in that year. Over the years, various other improvements were added to the Masjid, enhancing its capacity to a congregation of around 1,000 people. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Masjid Ahmad Ibrahim」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
