OK. This time I want to feature a mosque which is no less special, the main mosque of Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah I...

What is special about this mosque? Look at the yellow building in the picture...

For information, herein lies the one and only existing tomb of a Sultan of Melaka in Malaysia, Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah who ruled 1477-1488 AD. His name is written as Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah I because he had a grandchildren with the same name, known as Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah II who became ruler of the Johor-Riau-Lingga empire...

Although the mosque besides the tomb is a modern mosque built in the 1960s if I'm not mistaken, it is also special enough.

What is special about it?Let us go inside...

It looks similar to any common modern mosque. But do you know that the mosque was built on top the site of Sultan Alauddin's palace?

Recital of the Quranic verses of Al-Fatihah for Sultan Alauddin. That's all...
p/s: Nasib baik saya telah mengambil gambar-gambar ini dalam satu lawatan bulan Ogos. Walaupun saya telah banyak kali pergi ke sini, rupa-rupanya saya tidak pernah membuat apa-apa cerita khusus tentang masjid dan makam ini di blogspot ini. Yang ada cuma sedikit penerangan yang ada dalam artikel Gambar-gambar di Muar (pictures in Muar) yang dibuat Januari 2007 .
Luckily I took these pictures in a visit in August. Although I've been here many times, as it turned out I have never made any dedicated story about this mosque and tomb in this blogspot. What was available is just a bit of explanation available in the article Gambar-gambar di Muar (pictures in Muar) made January 2007 .
makam ini 10km dari rumah saya,nasib masih ada lg tinggalan zaman melaka,klu tak, tak ada apa lagi yang nak di tengok !
