Masjid Jamek Sungai Tiram (GPS: 5.30135, 100.27408) is a mosque for the village of Sungai Tiram in Bayan Lepas, Penang. Its official name is Masjid Al-Mustagheirin. At the time that it was founded, the mosque was surrounded by a village, with small lanes going in from the main road of Bayan Lepas. Today the main road, renamed Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, is a busy road connecting the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone to the Penang International Airport.

Masjid Jamek Sungai Tiram has moved according to the time. No longer is it a small, wooden structure. The mosque has been expanded and rebuilt in bricks. Development is engulfing the mosque, which result in the traditional village being swept away. In 2019, a new mosque building replaced the previous one.

Getting there

The bus stop is along Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, less than five minutes' walk away. It receives Rapid Penang bus 102, 305, 306, 401 and 401E.
