جامع الإمام محمد بن عبد الوهاب
As the largest mosque in Qatar, the Imam Abdul Wahhab Mosque, also known as the Qatar National Grand Mosque, was completed in 2011. Simple lines and elegant arches are very eye-catching and full of traditional Islamic architectural features. The mosque has three libraries, separate prayer and fasting ablution halls for men and women, and a dedicated Quran recitation hall, which can accommodate more than 30,000 worshippers. The mosque adopts a beautiful and orthodox Islamic architectural style, and the interior decoration is fascinating, decorated with many hand-woven carpets with different patterns and 28 chandeliers that can automatically adjust the brightness according to the natural light coming through the windows.
The National Grand Mosque was built by Sheikh Jassim bin Mohammed Al Thani, the founder of Qatar, in memory of his father and named after Imam Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhabi.
