This research employed a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews with informants and documentation studies. The results indicate that many mosques are still only used as places for ritual worship and have not been optimized as facilities for empowering the Islamic capacity of the surrounding community. In fact, mosques should not only function as places for congregational prayers but also serve as centers for social, economic, and educational development.

Therefore, greater seriousness and responsibility from the mosque administrators are needed to ensure that the mosque functions effectively as a center for fostering the community’s religious development.
