The Beauty of

The Federal Territory Mosque, also known as Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan, is a mosque located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It was officially opened in 2000 and is one of the largest and most modern mosques in the country. The mosque's design features a combination of traditional Islamic and modern architecture, with a large central dome, four smaller domes, and two towering minarets. The interior of the mosque can accommodate up to 17,000 worshippers at a time and includes a main prayer hall, separate prayer areas for women, and various other facilities such as classrooms, a library, and a multipurpose hall. One of the most striking features of the Federal Territory Mosque is its unique calligraphy, which is etched onto the walls and ceiling of the prayer hall. The calligraphy is a fusion of traditional Islamic script and modern design, and features various verses from the Quran and Islamic poetry. The mosque is open to visitors of all faiths and offers guided tours for those interested in learning more about Islam and the mosque's architecture and history. It is also a popular spot for photography, especially during sunset when the mosque is bathed in golden light.
