Di sini ada sebuah masjid dengan rekabentuk yang agak unik, masjid yang ditemui dalam perjalanan daripada Kuala Kangsar ke Lenggong. Sila! :]
Here is a mosque with rather unique design, a mosque found on the way from Kuala Kangsar to Lenggong. Come! :]
Masjid ini terletak di Kampung Banggol Belimbing, beberapa kilometer di selatan pekan Lenggong. Selain rekabentuknya yang unik, namanya iaitu Masjid Ubudiyah, sama dengan masjid diraja Perak di Bukit Chandan turut menarik perhatian saya.
This mosque is situated in Kampung (village of) Banggol Belimbing, a few kilometres south of the small town of Lenggong. Besides its unique architecture, its name which is Masjid (mosque of) Ubudiyah, same as that of the royal mosque in Bukit Chandan also attracted my attention.
Seorang kawan yang berasal daripada kampung berdekatan menunjukkan saya masjid ini. "Cuba tengok... Apakah rekabentuk unik ini berasal daripada Aceh?" dia bertanya.
A friend who hails from a nearby village showed me this mosque. "Have a good look... Is the design one that originated from Aceh?" he asked.
Saya pun tidak tahu jawabannya. Kawan saya pula bertanya begitu kerana dia tahu saya sangat berminat tentang apa-apa yang berkaitan dengan Aceh, tanah asal nenek-moyang saya dahulukala.
I myself don't know the answer. My friend asked me such because he knows I am very interested in anything to do with Aceh, the land of my forefathers of old.
Catatan di masjid ini pula menyebut ia dibina semasa zaman pemerintahan Sultan Alang Iskandar, Sultan ke 30 Perak (memerintah 1918-1938).
The writings in this mosque said it was built during the reign of Sultan Alang Iskandar, Perak's 30th Sultan (ruled 1918-1938).
Semasa meninggalkan masjid ini, saya dan kawan masih tertanya-tanya apakah asal rekabentuk masjid ini. Seketika itu juga ternampak nama sebuah lorong kecil di hadapan masjid... Kalau tak salah ingatan, namanya Lorong Tok Aceh. Yang pasti memang ada perkataan Aceh. Sekian! :]
While leaving the mosque, my friend and I were still asking where does the design of the mosque could have originated from. Immediately we saw the name of a small road in front of the mosque. If memory serves me right, the name is Lorong Tok Aceh. What is sure there is the word Aceh. That's all! :]
