Hedaytul Islam (Baan Haw) Mosque, located at Night Bazaar in Chiang Mai, is one of the biggest mosques in the province, and also one of the seven Chinese mosques in Chiang Mai.

History
It was first built in nineteenth century by a group of Chinese people, called Chin Ho or Hui, mostly came from Yunnan.[1] The present-day buildings were built later, with an Arabic style rather a Chinese style, except in front of the prayer hall, there is a Chinese word,which means a mosque.

Education

Every Saturday and Sunday, there is a class for young local Muslims, beginning around 8 O'clock to the noon prayer (dhuhr). The mosque also receives 20 students each year for parents who can't afford to send their children to a government school.[2] However, most of them are from the other part of the country, rather in Chiang Mai. The students are both Chinese and non-Chinese Muslims.
