The mosque originally started inside a rented house at 34-1 Fengyu Street (豐漁街) in Donggang Township,[1] in which most of the worshipers are Indonesian fishermen from the area.[2][3] After enough funds were collected over the past 10 years, worshipers had the idea to purchase the rented house and convert it into a mosque. Due to the reluctance of the house owner to sell it, worshipers had to look for a different house. They finally found one nearby the first house in Xingyu Street (興漁街), which is still located within the same township, and purchased it for an amount of NT$5.4 million. It was then renovated for a cost of NT$1 million with the addition of a wudu area and some air conditioning systems. It was eventually turned into the mosque.[4] The mosque was officially opened on 18 February 2018.[5][6][7]
The mosque is located on the third floor of a three-story house building with a capacity of 120 worshipers.[4][9] The mosque is also equipped with a Quran reading area and a madrasa.[4]
