Masjid Oman di Aceh (Oman mosque in Aceh)

Akhirnya, masuk hari ke-7 dan terakhir perjalanan di Aceh 13-19 Feb...

Finally, entering the 7th and final day of the trip in Aceh 13-19 Feb...

Pagi Khamis 19 Februari 2015. Saya dibawa ke masjid ini.

Thursday morning 19th February 2015. I was brought to this mosque.

Namanya Masjid Agung al-Makmur.

Its name is Masjid Agung (great mosque of) al-Makmur.

Tetapi ia lebih dikenali sebagai Masjid Oman.

But it was better known as Masjid (mosque of) Oman.

Ini kerana selepas Tsunami 26 Disember 2004 melanda Aceh, masjid asal di sini telah dibina kembali lebih besar oleh kerajaan of Oman.

This is because after the Tsunami of 26th December of 2004 affected Aceh, the original mosque here has been rebuilt larger by the kingdom of Oman.

Saya difahamkan ia baru dijadikan Rumah Budaya Banda Aceh.

I am made to understand that it has just recently been turned into Rumah Budaya (culture house of) Banda Aceh.
