Ырыскелды кажы, Modern mosque in Astana, Kazakhstan
The mosque features triangular walls connected by a 26-meter diameter dome, with a 43.5-meter minaret shaped like a sacred pen on its northern side.
Opened in 2018, the mosque was named after Ryskeldi Dzhaksybekov, who led the Tselinograd Regional Film Administration for 25 years in Kazakhstan.
The interior design follows Sufi traditions with minimal decorations, featuring only the 99 names of Allah around the dome in white and cream colors.
The prayer house accommodates 750 regular worshippers within its 3,695 square meters of space, with capacity extending to over 1,000 during Friday services.
Solar panels covering 1,295 square meters generate triple the mosque's energy requirements, with surplus power being distributed to the city grid.
