While, certain countries are still adapting to existence of mosques within their societies, majority countries of Middle East are religiously and culturally engraved with the functions of mosques.

Moreover, it is found that mosques have functions to increase such implementation of Islamic social finance. Innovatively, the disruption of technology in this millennium indicates certain innovative functions of mosques toward improving the lives of the people that stay close to them. |
