Mosque of Islamic Solidarity

The Mosque of Islamic Solidarity stands on the coast of the Somali Sea with white walls and geometric patterns adorning its architecture.

The mosque, constructed in 1987 with funding from Saudi Arabia, remained closed for 16 years during the Somali Civil War until 2006.

Local residents gather at the mosque for daily prayers, religious education sessions, and community meetings that strengthen social connections.

The religious complex accommodates up to 10,000 worshippers and requires visitors to remove shoes and wear appropriate clothing before entering the prayer halls.

The mosque represents the largest Islamic prayer facility in the Horn of Africa, featuring multiple domes visible across the Mogadishu skyline.
