Dubai 06 Jumeirah Mosque 01 Outside  [7 of 11]


The Jumeirah Mosque has a massive central dome where non-Muslims can visit as part of the ‘Open Doors, Open Minds’ cultural understanding program. It is an exact copy of a mosque in Cairo that is eight times its size. This stone structure is built in the medieval Fatimid tradition with two minarets that display the subtle details in the stonework. The minaret is the tower from which the call to prayer is broadcast five times a day.
