This mosque is located in Dubai in the Emirate of Dubai. It was built between 1975 and 1979 and was a gift from the then ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Rasheed bin Saeed Al Maktoum to his son and heir Sheikh Mohammed bin Rasheed Al Maktoum. It is located in the Jumeirah District along the Persian Gulf. It can accommodate up to 1,200 worshippers.
The mosque’s architecture is combined from Fatimid and Mamluk Islamic architectural styles. The mosque is built of yellow-pink sandstone with the two minarets and the dome embellished with deep relief carvings. The interior consists of columns arranged in a hypostyle design under the central dome. This arrangement originated in Seljuk architecture which was also used by the Mamluks.
