Al-Hakim Mosque in Padang is a Taj Mahal-style mosque on the edge of Padang Beach, Padang City, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The mosque was built in early 2017. The construction cost came from a donor, while the land was provided by the Padang City Government in line with the arrangement of Padang Beach which was carried out since 2014.
The mosque land used to be a children's play area and filled with street vendor tents. In 2016, a donor expressed his intention to build a mosque on the beach.[4] Thanks to the approach taken by the local government, the street vendors were willing to be relocated to a new place so that the construction of the mosque could be carried out.
Since September 4, 2020, Al-Hakim Padang Mosque has been opened for limited worship activities by implementing COVID-19 health protocols. According to the plan, the mosque will be inaugurated in November 2020.
Al-Hakim Mosque has a Rice ATM program, a rice assistance program aimed at 100 households around the mosque. Recipients can pick up the rice on a specified schedule.
