Jakarta, the capital of the world\u2019s biggest Muslim-majority country, is planning to construct a 2,500 capacity floating mosque in a popular recreational site, reported The Jakarta Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PT Pembangunan Jaya Ancol, a city-owned property developer, will be taking charge of the mosque\u2019s construction on the eastern side of Ancol Dreamland Park, specifically in Ria Beach.<\/p>\n

Teuku Sahir Syahali, president director of Pembangunan Jaya Ancol, told the press that renowned architect Andra Matin will be assisting them with the 2,000 square metre project.<\/p>\n

The floating mosque will take on a pentagon shape to symbolise the five daily prayers, as well as the five pillars of Islam.<\/p>\n

According to Teuku, \u201cThe design of the mosque represents the journey of Islam in Jakarta. We will design Ancol Floating Mosque in such a way that it can become a new icon of Jakarta.\u201d<\/p>\n

At 25 metres high, the mosque represents the 25 Islamic prophets that were mentioned by name in the Quran. Outside the mosque, six minarets will be constructed to signify the six principles of Islam.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the building and qibla will be facing the open sea to encourage natural air circulation and keep the interior cool.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that the floating mosque will offer visitors a new experience, become a new tourist destination and an icon of Jakarta,\u201d added Teuku.<\/p>\n

As of today, the city-owned property developer has not yet disclosed the start date of construction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
