Mosque of Imam Hussein, Shiite mosque in Anoud district, Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
The mosque stands as a primary religious structure in eastern Saudi Arabia, featuring traditional Islamic architectural elements with separate prayer areas for men and women.
Established in 1986, the mosque became a target of violence in 2015 when a suicide bomber killed four people during Friday prayers.
The mosque functions as a central gathering place for the Shiite minority population of Dammam, hosting daily prayers and religious ceremonies throughout the year.
Located 70 kilometers from Bahrain, the mosque maintains increased security measures with careful screening procedures for all visitors entering the premises.
The mosque's volunteer security team prevented greater casualties in 2015 by stopping an attacker disguised in traditional female clothing at the entrance.
