El-Tabia Mosque, Islamic prayer site in central Aswan, Egypt.
The mosque features four entrances leading to a large canopy built on circular columns with pointed arches and glass lanterns displaying Quranic verses.
Constructed in 1974, El-Tabia Mosque incorporates Mamluk architectural elements within its modern structure, including a central dome and dual minarets.
The interior prayer hall showcases traditional Islamic artistry through geometric patterns, calligraphy, and a granite mihrab adorned with Quranic inscriptions.
The mosque accommodates thousands of worshippers and serves as an annual observation point for sighting the Ramadan crescent moon in Aswan.
The mosque's gardens contain native Egyptian flora, providing a natural setting against the backdrop of the flowing Nile River.
