The aim of this research is to analyze and describe the strategic role of mosques as Islamic cadre formation institutions in the context of social dynamics, both from a historical and contemporary perspective. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach, regarding journals and books regarding historical and contemporary reviews of the role of mosques, especially in character development, education and leadership.
