Al-Zahra Mosque, Shia mosque in Arncliffe, Sydney, Australia
The Al-Zahra Mosque features Iranian architectural elements with one central dome and one minaret rising above the Arncliffe neighborhood of Sydney.
Established in 1980, this religious center marked a milestone as the first Shia mosque constructed in Australia and developed into one of the country's largest Islamic structures.
The mosque honors Fatima Al-Zahra through its name and serves as a central gathering point for the Shia Muslim community in the Sydney metropolitan area.
Located at 1 Wollongong Road, the mosque provides daily prayer services in Arabic and English, with separate prayer spaces for men and women.
The presence of this mosque has influenced local real estate development patterns and electoral outcomes in both Federal and State elections since its construction.
