Sultan Ahmad Shah State Mosque

The Sultan Ahmad Shah State Mosque features four minarets surrounding a central dome, with geometric patterns decorating its marble exterior walls.

The current structure, completed in 1993, replaced an older wooden mosque from 1962 that experienced structural problems and needed complete reconstruction.

The mosque interior displays Asma al-Husna calligraphy and Quranic verses on its walls, reflecting traditional Islamic artistic elements in its decoration.

Located in Kuantan's business district on Jalan Mahkota, the mosque accommodates 10,000 worshippers and maintains specific visiting hours for non-Muslim visitors.

The mosque structure includes a 180-foot tower and incorporates blue and white marble surfaces that create light patterns through stained glass windows.
