Masjid Al-Ansar on Bedok North Avenue 1 in Singapore.

Masjid Al-Ansar, or Al-Ansar Mosque, is a mosque in Singapore that was among the first few to be built under Phase One of the Mosque Building Fund Programme. Completed in 1981 and located in the Bedok North area, the mosque can accommodate up to 3,500 people at any one time. Apart from daily and Friday prayers, the mosque offers madrasah classes during weekdays and weekends. It is also one of the few mosques that organizes religious classes in Tamil, and is one of only two mosques in Singapore with a full-time welfare officer.

In October 2011, the mosque chairman announced that the masjid will undergo a major renovation starting in July 2012. The upgrade will increase the accommodation size to 4,500 people, while improving access to the building for the elderly.
