The mosque is a sacred place for the Muslim, however, the car parking has been a long-standing issue that tarnished the image of the Mosque. These problems becomes more significant especially when mosque located around the business central such as banking, administration area and also as a center of Muslims meeting. The problem often starts with the limited numbers of parking available for people who come to mosque, and this situation turns to critical especially during Friday prayers and throughout the Ramadan month.
