KAFD Grand Mosque

The KAFD Grand Mosque is a modern prayer house in the financial district with two levels and open halls free of interior support columns. The space holds approximately 1,500 worshippers and provides clear views to the prayer area from all positions.

It was built in 2006 as part of the King Abdullah Financial District development. Since then, it has gained recognition internationally as an important contemporary Islamic structure.

The design blends desert flower patterns with Islamic geometry, showing how regional traditions are woven into modern construction. Visitors notice this fusion in every detail of the interior spaces and exterior forms.

The building sits at the intersection of three main pathways and is easy to locate. The open floor plan helps visitors orient themselves and move around the interior with ease.

The roof is covered in mosaics visible from all angles, and two 60-meter minarets feature windows decorated with Quranic verses in abstract Arabic calligraphy. These decorative details make the building stand out when viewed from outside.
