hi tutubi,
This post is interesting...I know there's a mosque in quiapo but i didn't know there are other mosques in Metro Manila. It would be interesting to visit them but entry may not be allowed. Here, there is mosque in every corner. In Oman, I was able to visit Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque because they allow tourist to enter but in proper attire. -

This is a wonderful list, wish I had seen this before Eid since I'm a Muslim staying in Quezon City.
To my surprise (and joy!) I heard the evening call to prayer while visiting a friend in the La Vista subdivision, but I couldn't tell where it was coming from.
Anyway, thank you for the information, very much appreciated! :) -

Dear Tutubi,
Could you please include the Al Furqan Mosque in the lists of Mosques outside Manila. The mosque was newly built located in Brgy. Sinasajan Penaranda Nueva Ecija. The land was donated to AFIA by Tejada family a Balik Islam in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.It has a floor area of 100 sq. meter with the total area including the sorrounding fenced area of 400 sq. meter. The mosque includes wudhu area, parking space, imam house (back portion)and an open space or gathering. The mosque outside paint is combination of apple green and leaf green while inside was yellow and orange.I hope I can also post the photo of the mosque for the viewer or for any muslim nearby or visitors wanted to see the said mosque. More power to your website. MAy Allah shower us blessings for the good deeds. -
