Description

Essentials about the Jumeirah Mosque in brief

Due to its beauty, the Jumeirah Mosque is said to be the most photographed mosque in Dubai. Be that as it may, anyone who wants to visit a mosque as a non-Muslim should make their way to the Jumeirah Mosque. It is the only mosque in Dubai that is open to non-Muslims six days a week.

The architecture of the Jumeirah Mosque

The Jumeirah Mosque is still relatively young. It was built in the late 1970s in the medieval Fatimid tradition exclusively of white stone. Two towering minarets frame the large central dome. Inside, the mosque seats 1,200 people. The most beautiful sight of the Jumeirah Mosque is in the evening, when it is illuminated at dusk, so that its filigree beauty is even more impressive.

Visiting the Jumeirah Mosque

If you want to learn more about the culture of the Emirates and the religion of Islam, it is best to join one of the guided tours organized by the Sheikh Mohammed Center for Cultural Understanding. It goes without saying that both men and women should wear appropriate clothing for a mosque visit (no shorts, shoulders and for the ladies, hair covered).
