n Under the supervision of JKR (The Public Works Department) and led by Howard Ashley , DATO’ HISHAM AL BAKRI and the architects Baharuddin Kasim designed the National Mosque which was built in 1965. constructed of reinforced concrete with Italian marble finishing, the building is a mixture of Islamic and Modernist design principles. The asymmetrical and open plan of the mosque is a breakthrough from the earlier mosques design in Malaysia. Devoting to the early Modernist principle of ‘form follows function’ , the interior spaces are organized according to the principle function of the mosque. The first level is designed for prayers and rituals. The lower level houses the public facilities, such as the administration building for tithes collection, a clinic, and classrooms for religious instruction.

DATO’ HISHAM AL BAKRINATIONAL MOSQUE

The most interesting design element of the National Mosque is the fan-shaped, folded plate roof that covers the central player hall. The galleries, treated like verandas that surround the prayer hall, are screened with geometrically patterned grilles. A number of small domes that cover the galleries are inspired by Middle Eastern and Mogul architecture. The beauty and the innovative design of the building, especially the folded roof, inspire the early post-independence mosques’ design in Malaysia
