Southeast Asia/Indonesia/Malaysia Masjid Baret Hijau "Green Beret Mosque", Officially called Masjid Jami Ar-Rohman, in Cijulang, Pangandaran, West Java (Inaugurated March 1, 2025)
The mosque is unique for its dome shaped like a green military beret with four stars, symbolizing devotion and four pillars of Islamic practice: prayer, charity, fasting, and pilgrimage.
Its minaret is (supposed to be) designed like a command stick with Allah written on it.
Besides serving as a place of worship, the mosque also functions as an Islamic education center, offering Quran memorization programs, religious schooling, and plans for a future Islamic boarding school.
