Khamis Mosque, Ancient mosque in Bilad Al Qadim, Bahrain.
The Khamis Mosque structure exhibits two identical twin minarets rising above a rectangular prayer hall with wooden columns and masonry piers.
Constructed in the 7th century during the Umayyad period, the mosque underwent significant renovations in the 14th and 15th centuries with the addition of its twin minarets.
The limestone mihrab slab discovered during restoration contains inscriptions from the Quran, specifically verses 34-35 from Surah XXI.
Located along Sheikh Salman Highway, the mosque welcomes visitors from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM every day except Fridays.
The mosque derives its name from a Thursday market that operated at this location for many centuries.
