<![CDATA[Limited participation among children and adolescents in religious activities was identified at Khairat Mosque, Jorong Patar, Indonesia. This community engagement programme aimed to facilitate youth participation in mosque-based religious activities through an integrated Tabligh Akbar initiative involving mosque–school collaboration and university students. The programme adopted a participatory approach comprising needs assessment, collaborative planning, programme implementation, and evaluation. Data were collected through direct observation, informal stakeholder feedback, and programme documentation and analysed descriptively. Preliminary observations indicated that routine mosque activities typically involved approximately 0–5 young participants, whereas the integrated Tabligh Akbar engaged more than 50 children and adolescents. The programme combined Qur'anic recitation, religious lectures, quizzes, and nasheed performances, with coordination among mosque administrators, the partner school, and university students facilitating its implementation. These findings document youth participation during a collaboratively organised religious event and illustrate the practical role of interinstitutional coordination in mosque-based community engagement. The programme offers context-specific insights into organising participatory religious activities for young people, although sustained participation and changes in religious character were not evaluated]]>
