Al-Hakim Mosque, Islamic prayer center in Berok Nipah, Indonesia

Al-Hakim Mosque is a white mosque on the Padang beachfront in Berok Nipah, built in a Taj Mahal style. Its facade has a large central pointed arch framed by a geometric white latticework screen, flanked by two slender minaret-like pillars with gold accents and crescents. Gold lettering reading "MASJID AL HAKIM" sits above the entrance, and a flight of dark stairs with white ornate railings leads up to the door.

Construction of this mosque started in 2017 on former playground land after local merchants agreed to relocate their stalls. The project emerged from the community's need for a dedicated prayer space.

The mosque runs an ATM Beras programme: rice is set aside for 100 households living around it, who collect their share on set days. The building's Taj Mahal-style design, with its domes and corner minarets, ties it to the Padang Beach seafront that the city began reordering in 2014.

The mosque stands on the Padang Beach waterfront, on land that was a children's play area and street-vendor strip before 2016. It reopened for worship on 4 September 2020 under COVID-19 health protocols, with a planned inauguration in November 2020. Visitors should time their visit around prayer and check current entry rules.

The mosque runs an "ATM Beras" programme: rice is set aside for 100 households living around it, who collect it on scheduled days. The land it stands on was a children's playground crowded with street vendors' tents until 2016, when a donor announced plans to build by the beach and the vendors agreed to move.
