Mesquita Omar Ibn Al-Khatab

The mosque was inaugurated on 23 March 1983 featuring a beautiful exterior design painted in uniform white color. Its architecture was inspired by Al-Aqsa Mosque, in Jerusalem. The mosque is named after Omar Ibn Al-Khatab, a pious companion of the Holy Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم and one of the first four caliphs of Islam. Outside the mosque are tall two minarets from which the Muslim call to prayer (Adaan) is sounded five times each day which gathers the faithful for congregational prayers in the spacious main hall. ==Gallery==
