Dimaukom Mosque

The Dimaukom Mosque (مسجد ديماوكوم) or the Pink Mosque is a mosque in Datu Saudi Ampatuan, Maguindanao, the Philippines.

History
The mosque's construction was financed by then-Mayor Samsudin Dimaukom. The land where the mosque was built was a property of the mayor's family. The mosque was built by Christian workmen to symbolize unity and inter-faith brotherhood. The mosque first opened during the Ramadan season in 2014.

Architecture and design
The Dimaukom Mosque is notable for its pink painted façade. Pink is meant to symbolize peace and love. According to Mayor Dimaukom, who has used his favorite color pink as his campaign color, says that love is meant to cover various kinds of love including love to Allah and the community. The move to have the mosque painted is also an effort to boost Datu Saudi Ampatuan's local tourism industry having painted or built pink buildings in other parts of the town.
