{Jama’ a Al Sultan Taimur Bin Faisal}

This majestic grand mosque was build and opened under the patronage of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos in 2012, and was named after his Majesty’s grandfather. It’s the largest mosque in Al Ma’abela and is eye-catching with its serene cream colour-palette and dome adorned with modern Islamic drawings in a blend of peachy pastel colours. The entrance is huge and spacious, swung wide open for Friday prayers.
