About

Landmark mosque featuring a traditional Arabic design, with imposing twin minarets & 3 silver domes.

Arrive for Friday jummah and you'll hear a khutbah delivered in Swahili and Arabic to a packed, peaceful masjid with a huge women's section. The twin minarets and silver domes are stunning, but watch out for well-rehearsed scammers circling inside with sob stories — they approach every 15 minutes.
