Our Mosque History
A mosque which was originally only a storey high, Masjid Kassim or Masjid Kassim is built on a piece of wakaf land which currently stands at Changi Road and has been around since the early 1920s. Back then, the mosque could only accomodate around 700 worshippers.
Wakaf Kassim consists of its mosque, the surrounding residential areas and a burial ground in Siglap Road. It was developed for the maintenance of the Masjid Kassim and to ensure that the burial grounds at Siglap were well-kept.
The land was given by Ahna Mohamed Kassim Bin Ally Mohamed back in 1921 and given to 4 trustees when he passed on 31st July 1935.
