Abu Darweesh Mosque, Black and white striped mosque in Jabal Ashrafieh, Amman, Jordan.
The exterior walls of Abu Darweesh Mosque display alternating horizontal stripes of black and white stone, creating a geometric pattern across the structure.
Palestinian craftsmen from a West Bank village near Jerusalem constructed this 2,500-square-meter religious building in 1961, funded by Mustafa Hassan.
The mosque functions as an educational center where community members gather to study Islamic teachings and participate in religious discussions.
Visitors need to dress modestly, with women covering their hair, and access to the interior is limited to periods outside prayer times.
The construction of this mosque transformed Jabal Ashrafieh from an uninhabited area into a developed neighborhood, with only a hospital existing beforehand.
