Nur-Astana Mosque, Islamic house of worship in Astana, Kazakhstan.

The Nur-Astana Mosque rises with four minarets reaching 63 meters high and features a central dome measuring 40 meters above ground level.

The construction of this religious building began in March 2005 following an agreement between Kazakhstan's President and the Emir of Qatar.

The mosque serves as a primary religious center in Kazakhstan, welcoming 5000 worshippers for daily prayers and religious celebrations throughout the year.

The religious complex stands on the left bank of the river, incorporating modern materials such as glass, concrete, and granite in its structure.

The height measurements of the mosque incorporate specific numbers that reflect Prophet Muhammad's age at key moments in Islamic history.
