This research is qualitative in nature with a descriptive qualitative approach through observation and documentation methods. The results of this study focus on two important things; First, the contribution of the mosque in strengthening the tradition of inclusive Islamic da'wah. Second, Singapore's multilingualism through the Tamil language is one of the main factors in building religious harmony in diversity.
