★★★★★a year agoThe calligraphy and decorations inside are absolutely stunning. I love how peaceful and well-maintained this mosque is. Also, the people who take care of this mosque do an amazing job; it’s always so clean and organized. This mosque is a beautiful place for the community to gather and worship together. Ma Sha Allah may You all be blessed by the Almighty Amina RABANA WATAKABAL DOUAI 🙏

★★★★★4 months agoBeautiful and modern mosque with a peaceful atmosphere. The glass dome and tall minarets make it stand out. Opened in 2018, it can host around 2,000 worshippers inside (more with the courtyard). About 36.5 m high dome and 55 m minarets, built with concrete, steel, and lots of glass. Definitely worth a visit!
