Masjid Kristal di (Crystal mosque in) Kuala Terengganu

Hari ini juga baru saya tersedar yang saya tidak pernah membuat apa-apa posting tentang Masjid Kristal di blogspot ini. Maka ini dia satu posting berdasarkan gambar-gambar yang diambil dalam perjalanan terbaru ke Pantai Timur...

Today also did I realised that I've never made any posting on the crystal mosque in this blogspot ever. And so here is a posting based on the pictures taken in my latest trip to the East Coast.

Bagi rakyat Malaysia, nama Masjid Kristal tidak perlu diperkenalkan lagi. Sejak mula dibina tahun 2006 hingga siap dan dirasmikan awal tahun ini, masjid ini sering diwar-warkan sebagai satu simbol kemodenan Islam di Malaysia.

For Malaysians, the name Masjid Kristal (or crystal mosque) needs no further introduction. Since it was built in the year 2006 till its completion and official opening early this year, the mosque is often paraded as a symbol of Islamic modernisation in Malaysia.


Sebenarnya ia bukanlah dibuat daripada kristal tetapi kaca seperti kristal dan besi keluli sebagai penyokong.

Actually it wasn't built from cystal (as in Bohemian crystal and such) but from cystal-like glass and metal works as the support.

Pandangan bahagian hadapan dewan solat...

A view of the front of the praying hall...



Kubahnya dilihat dari dalam...

Its dome seen from the inside...


Pada mimbarnya terdapat bebola kristal ini...

At the pulpit there's this crystal ball...


Ia menawarkan satu perspektif unik pandangan dalam!

It offers a unique perspektive of the view inside!


Terdapat juga bahagian panel kayu yang menggunakan bentuk ukiran tradisional Melayu. Sekian! :]

There's also parts with wooden panels using shapes of traditional Malay carving. That's all! :]
