300 Years Mosque (Wadil-Husen Mosque)
  • The 300 Years Mosque, also known as Al-Hussein Mosque or Talo Mano Mosque, stands as one of the oldest Musjids in Thailand. Situated in Narathiwat, a southern province, it continues to serve the large Muslim community in the area. The Musjid was constructed in 1634 to cater to the newly settled Muslim population of that era, making it the oldest wooden Musjid in Thailand.

  • The origins of the Musjid trace back to the Pattani Kingdom, which was under the rule of a sultan at the time. Both Muslim and Buddhist villagers collaborated in building the Musjid in 1634. According to legend, during a war between the Siamese Kingdom and the Pattani Kingdom, a young woman from a village in the Pattani Kingdom fled with the village’s Quran in her hands. She fell into a small valley and was rescued by local villagers who were astonished to find her clutching the Quran. Moved by this event, the villagers decided to construct the Musjid once the war had ended. Another legend suggests that the Musjid was built in 1624 by Wan Husein Az-Sanawi, a teacher who migrated to the Pattani Kingdom. The Musjid houses both the hand-written Quran and the original construction plan to this day.
