Dehiwala Muhiyadeen Grand Jummah Masjid தெஹிவளை ஜும்மா பள்ளிவாயல்

Unclaimed

One of the better and most popular mosques in Sri Lanka. They have a huge amount of staff (28 people) living on the premises and working day in, day out to ensure everything goes smoothly. They have AC and the floor is carpeted (only the ground floor), and they also have a cemetery here and they offer the funeral prayer and bury the body. They have a women's prayer room, madrasah for kids, ziyaram and whatever else you can think of. Every Ramadhan they offer Iftar here, free for anyone who wants. They give you a juice(usually faluda or nannari), 2 shorteats, congee and a bottle of water (to be shared with the person opposite you). Overall the mosque is very clean and cool so you can pray comfortably. During Ramadhan they also give out water during Taraweeh and Qiyam-ul-Layl. They also have lots of sermons and other programs (especially during Ramadhan) so you can learn about the religion. The ablution area has also been tiled and is very clean. The only place they really could use improvement is the toilets... The toilets still leave a lot to desire and you have to walk barefoot through the stalls until someone comes out with a pair of slippers, which you have to wear ? Very unsanitary. The bathrooms also have only squatting pans and there is no flush either, so the smell is "heavenly". No place to hang your clothes or pants, so be very careful if you have your phone or wallet and are wearing loose pants as they can easily fall out. If you drop anything in there, good luck. There isn't any shattaf(hose) but only a lota (jug) and a tap which you can use to clean yourself.

My masjid. My beloved father is buried here. Very large masjid which can accommodate nearly 4000 people. It’s a calm and spiritual.
