This is a great and accessible collection. We go once every year. It is an eye opener. Chinese Muslim culture is something to help mess with local Malay Muslim’s prejudices (since they often equate Islam and Malay-ness). Seeing beautiful Chinese Muslim calligraphy and models of mosques that look like pagodas is awe inspiring.
One thing that this museum opens the visitor to is the diversity of Islamic culture. In many ways there is no uniqueness. Syrian mosques are
Byzantine as are Turkish. Traditional Indonesian and Malaysian mosques look like Balinese pagodas. Indian mosques are Indian. Andalusian and Moroccan are Andalusian/Moroccan. None of them has a claim to being more Muslim since Islamic culture is just an Islamisation of local culture. This museum more than anything shows the diversity that is Islam.
