Sakinakhanim Mosque, Islamic mosque in Guba, Azerbaijan

The Sakinakhanim Mosque features red brick construction with a cylindrical shape and semi-circular windows adorning each wall of the structure.

Built in 1854 by Sakina Bakikhanova in memory of Abbasgulu Bakikhanov, the mosque underwent conversion to a warehouse during the Soviet period until 1992.

Arabic and Persian Quran verses inscribed above the entrance portico reflect the deep Islamic heritage of this religious monument.

The mosque stands 27 meters tall with a dome diameter of 4.5 meters, supported by four large columns and contains a walnut wood pulpit.

The adjacent madrasa, operational since 1994, functions alongside the mosque, creating an educational and spiritual center in Guba.
