Mariam Mosque, Female-led mosque in Copenhagen Municipality, Denmark
The Mariam Mosque maintains separate prayer areas for men and women while providing religious education through its Islamic Academy programs.
Established in 2016 by Sherin Khankan, a scholar with Syrian-Finnish heritage, the Mariam Mosque became Scandinavia's first mosque with female religious leadership.
The mosque conducts interfaith marriage ceremonies and creates opportunities for women to participate actively in religious ceremonies and educational programs.
Located in central Copenhagen, the mosque welcomes both male and female visitors throughout the week, with Friday prayers reserved exclusively for women.
Female imams at Mariam Mosque lead prayers, provide spiritual guidance, and interpret Islamic texts from perspectives that emphasize gender equality.
