Thank you for sharing. When I was in Indonesia, I tried to take a picture inside a mosque, but they would not allow me.

@ Brad, you were just not in the right mosque I presume or at the right time? :).
Mostly, they would allow you to take picture of a masjid's interior as long as you don't treat it as a mere touristic object. There's a certain rule when entering a masjid that everybody must obey.
Try it again someday.
Peace.

Thanks Henny for explaining!

@Brad, I am sorry to know that you have such a bad experience ={. Probably, the mosque that you wanted to enter was under a quite restricted managed one and probably (I guess you were not properly clothed that time, that was why you were not allowed to enter) As what I understand , most Indonesians are welcoming non-muslim to see inside the mosque, Well perhaps next time, when you are in Indonesia and I was too, Just give me a shout and I would give you the tour of your life. hehe

Peace!
