Last year Khawater 5 was the biggest hit on the Arab Channels and was rated number one (the rating research card is attached).

Semasa perbincangannya dengan Tuan Nazir beliau menyatakan, “Our filming starts next Monday for the entire week. We would like to have the opportunity to film at your mosque on Monday, 16th December 2013, during one of the evening prayers. We suggested this mosque to the producers in Egypt and they find it very interesting as you can see it from the highway and stand majestically by the lake. I hope that despite the short notice, we can make this filming happen”. 

Tuan Nazir berharap semua pihak termasuk Pegawai Masjid, AJK dan semua anak kariah membantu dan bekerjasama memastikan aspek kebersihan dan imej Masjid As-Salam sentiasa terjaga.
