Masjid Al-Ansar is a prominent mosque in Bedok, Singapore, featuring a distinct contemporary architectural design following a major reconstruction completed in 2015. The facility is distinguished by its 'mosque without pillars' concept, which utilizes a large-span structure to provide an expansive, unobstructed prayer hall. It serves as a vital community hub for the local Muslim population, offering religious education and counseling services. The exterior design incorporates geometric patterns and a unique color scheme that differentiates it from traditional Middle Eastern mosque architecture. It is fully air-conditioned and designed to accommodate a high capacity of congregants. The site functions as a multi-purpose center, integrating religious worship with social and educational spaces. It is managed under the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (MUIS).
The external facade from the street level across the road provides the best view of the mosque's modern geometric architectural features.
