Dari namanya Jawa Mosque, awalnya saya pikir khotbahnya bakal disampaikan dengan bahasa Jawa atau paling tidak menggunakan bahasa Indonesia, namun ternyata tidak, seluruh pengantar tatacara ibadah jumat disampaikan dengan bahasa Thai sehingga hanya ayat-ayat Al-Qur'an sajalah yang bisa dimengerti oleh jamaah seperti saya.Â
Hal yang menarik ketika sampai di halaman masjid banyak tersedia makanan yang terhampar. Saya pikir ada orang yang jualan ternyata makanan itu merupakan sumbangan dari warga sekitar dan dikonsumsi oleh jamaah setelah sholat jumat. Sebagian penyumbang ada yang minta didoakan oleh jamaah agar dimudahkan rezekinya.

"Â In the reign of King Mongkut (King Rama IV) of Rattanakosin Kingdom, there were Javanese from Java Island (now is a part of Indonesia) been travelling to trade and some settle in Thailand. Some Javanese had expanded and lived in old ice factory alley, Kokkrabue subdistrict, Bangkrak distric, south Sathorn canal (now it is Yanawa subdistrict, Sathorn district). Later in the reign of King Chulalongkorn (King Rama V), he considered to hire Javanese to garden the Grand Palace and government buildings. The Javanese then arrived and immigrated increasingly.Â
They agreed to establish a mosque as center for Javanese setters and workers in that periode. In B.C. 1945, Hj Muhammad soleh bin Hasan, a Javanese trader had donated his land which included 12 wa at western, 14 wa at eastem and 12 wa at northem (556 square meters) to build a mosque, Its architecture is Semarang central Jawa style, the bulding is a single storey with a roof layers.
