Mosquée de la Divinité

The Mosquée de la Divinité is a mosque located on the Atlantic coastline in Ouakam with two tall minarets and a large central dome. The structure sits directly facing the ocean, with an open courtyard and an interior prayer hall that can accommodate many worshippers.

The mosque was built beginning in 1992 based on hand-drawn plans that originated from a vision in 1973. Construction progressed through volunteer efforts over several years without relying on outside funding or support.

The mosque functions as a gathering place where the local community comes together for worship and shares meals during Ramadan. It holds deep spiritual meaning for residents and shapes the rhythm of daily life in the neighborhood.

Plan your visit outside prayer times and bring modest clothing to wear inside. The location sits right at the waterfront and can be reached easily from the main roads in the area.

The structure was conceived from a personal inspiration that came in 1973 and was then developed through sketches over many years. This unusual origin story shows how the place grew from one person's inner vision into a real building.
