Place of worship in Oman: Jama’a Al Muhalab Bin Abi Sufrah

Ramadan presents a great opportunity to go pray in beautiful houses of worship that you might not otherwise see. Whether for Taraweeh prayers or Dhuhr, this month, take time to pay a visit to one of Muscat’s architectural monuments of faith.

{ Jama’a Al Muhalab Bin Abi Sufrah }

This majestic mosque is located in the hilly area of Madinat Al Ilam, near the Royal Oman Police base. The building shines from a mile away with its glittery exterior and reflective tiling. Inside, it boasts airy, honey-coloured tiled hallways, which form a spacious square that leads to the main prayer hall. The mosque is filled with gentle, lovely touches, like white-washed wooden chairs that are perfect for sitting and catching up after prayers. There is also a large hall for events and celebrations a few steps away from the main building.
