In a city with many fine mosques, Jumeirah Mosque is the largest, and arguably the most beautiful. A spectacular example of modern Islamic architecture, the mosque is a city landmark with its twin minarets and majestic dome. The mosque is particularly stunning at night, and is one of Dubai’s most photographed sights.
From a distance this structure stands alone against the sky, silhouetted impressively against the sky. Dominated by minarets towering over a majestic dome, Jumeriah Mosque combines a medieval Fatmid architecture style with modern building materials and is considered to be one of the most attractive mosques in Dubai. It is for this reason that it has become one of the most popular tourist attractions in Dubai.
Regular tours of this mosque are arranged for non Muslims ensuring that everyone can discover the wonders offer inside this magnificent structure. These tours also have the objective of bringing together the different cultural groups living together in Dubai. It is the only mosque in Dubai to achieve this distinction of allowing non practicing individuals to enter.
Tours of the structure allow visitors to learn about the building’s construction and its religious significance. Going beyond the mosque itself, guides will also explain facts about the religion of Islam and how it came in to being. This goes on to include items such as explanation regarding the call to pray 5 times a day and demonstrations of prayer ritual. The final part of the tour involves a questions and answer period allowing visitors to learn more information about Islam and Emirati culture.
Visitors can also indulge in cultural breakfasts allowing visitors to the city to learn more about the traditions, practices and general life in the Emirates.
