Contributions:
Apart for his successful trading business, Syed Omar was also noted as one of the first religious leaders and one who was a generous contributor to charitable causes. He donated land for religious buildings such as St Andrew’s Cathedral and the Masjid Kampong Melaka (a.k.a Masjid Omar Kampong Melaka or Malacca Mosque) in Chinatown. He had commissioned the construction of the mosque in 1820 for Malay fishermen, Bugis merchants and Malaccan businessmen who traded with the Chinese in Chinatown and it was the first place of worship in Singapore. Another mosque that is attributed to him is the mosque in Bencoolen street. He also donated land for the Pauper’s Hospital in 1844 which would later be Tan Tock Seng Hospital for which his nephew Syed Ali would also donate land between Victoria Street and Arab Street.
