مسجد القبب, Historical mosque in Abu Arish, Saudi Arabia

The Qubbab Mosque in Abu Arish is a prayer house featuring 18 domes organized in three parallel rows of six each. The structure was built using gypsum and bricks in the traditional Islamic architectural style of the region.

Construction of the mosque began during the First Saudi State under the leadership of Sharif Hamoud bin Muhammad Al-Khayrati Abu Mismar. This important project was developed as a religious building with local significance for the city of Abu Arish.

The mosque serves as a meeting place where people gather for daily prayers and community occasions throughout the year. It holds religious significance for worshippers in the surrounding area who come to pray together and participate in local events.

Visitors should wear appropriate clothing when entering the mosque and respect the rules that apply in prayer houses. The entrance is usually accessible and the building can be found easily in the city.

The distinctive feature of the building is the arrangement of the domes in three identical rows that create a recognizable geometric pattern from different angles. This design makes the mosque immediately identifiable from outside.
