Grand Mosque in Sohar, oman 🇴🇲. Awesome architecture. Nice works on walls in the mosque. A lot of tourist visiting in this grand mosque

Excellent Mosque in Oman Spectacular Design Very well maintained and clean

beautiful mosque سبحان الله‎. it captured our complete attention as soon as we reached there. the mosque is pristine and the islamic architecture is enthralling visually. there's a huge parking space. we offered our asr prayers and has all facilities required for prayer. there are shoe racks, water filters, restroom, wudu room etc. also there are digital small screen which displays the pictures of mosque inside out in a slideshow way. outside the mosque is a huge clean & green garden and gave a very fresh appearance , in which we preferred to take a walk barefoot considering how clean it was as we were leaving. the mosque is bit away from muscat but worth visiting

Beautiful and huge masjid.. a must visit if you visit Suhar.

A stunning landscape adorned with a meticulously designed and blossoming garden in full bloom.

One of the most beautiful mosque in Oman, must visit place if people anytime happen to be in Oman.

Me like oman kantrai Sooooo swet sonhar💞👍👍👍👍👍👍💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

One of most beautiful and magnificent Masjid I've ever seen Big parking area inside and outside Beautiful garden which you can smell the flowers scents from far away Unique design and architecture Both male and female prayer place is available Big yard Wooden design adds the beauty to it In'sha Allah i Will visit again in future

Very beautiful mosque and amazing piece of architecture. Big parking space and ablution facility at multiple places. Peaceful and nice place. Although AC was bit too low and was feeling cold while listening to Friday lecture.

Its a marvelous towering structure built by the King.... Spread over a vast land with ample space for parking and walking... Its assumed that the mosque is built mainly as a tourist attraction to showcase the rich heritage and history of Oman.. there are only few worshippers for the daily sala's, and majority of them are the workers employed in the mosque for its upkeep. Understood that the construction took some years .. Its really worth a visit to see the mosque. The view changes entirely to a different mood in the night due to the illumination by lights.... The structure can be seen from long distances and its really an asset to the city of Sohar.... No ticket to enter the premises and the mosque. Non-Muslims can also pay visit to the mosque, but learned that they are not permitted during prayer times to the mosque proper... Lot of visitors from all faith are seen visiting the structure.... Wikipedia describes the mosque as "It was named after the previous Sultan of Oman, Qaboos bin Said. The mosque is built on a site occupying 181,000 square metres, and the built up area is 28,778 square metres. The area allocated for the mosque accommodates landscaping, car parks and other facilities. The main prayer hall can hold over 4,600 worshipers, while the women's area can accommodate 740 worshipers. The mosque has a garden, three main entrances, four minarets, and a blue main dome. It also integrates wood in its design. The interior of the mosque is intricate with subtle colors. The mihrab is tiled in a turquoise and gold palette. The carpet has a horizontally-lined pattern"

Sultan qaboos grand mosque in sohar.mind blowing this mosque.area,garden,interior digining,marvel,one big lamp light that is amazing in mosque.carpet also so beautiful.out side also looking wonder.i visited this mosque 3time.

Amazing architecture, beautiful mosque, i just travelled to Oman to visit this. Breathtaking! I had the luck go be completely alone inside.

Indeed the biggest mosque and one of the must visit spots of the city! Beautifully designed and very well maintained.

The exterior of this Grand Mosque is indeed grand with intricately carved solid teak wood pillars. The three entrances to the Mosque also do justice to it's name being grand and reminds of Iranian design. The courtyard look is majestic too and I am sure you'll be inspired to take some amazing photos here. A must see place of interest if you are visiting Sohar.

Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque of the city of Sohar is an iconic mosque that is a must visit if you're here. Beautiful architecture and the place is huge! Check out some pics I have posted here.

Masha allah … Mind blowing place … The mosque is huge. Walking in the garden was so peaceful. Guides inside are very polite and helpful. Be aware of the dress code. Wear something long that covers the all body. inside the mosque unbelievable hand works on the wall and door .. Highly Recommended if you visit muscat..

The Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar, which opened on October 28, 2016, is one of the most modern large mosques in the Arabian Gulf region. It was built to the highest and most beautiful standards. It is considered one of the new landmarks in the Sultanate of Oman that is worth visiting. It is distinguished by its carvings and its towering crystal dome. It is considered the mosque that was built in the Uzbek style. It is similar to the Bibi Khanum Mosque, and is located near the House of Bahjat Al-Ansar in the state of Sohar and on the main road leading to the Emirate of Dubai.[1]

Visiting the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque Sohar is not merely a sightseeing endeavor; it's a journey into the heart of Omani history and artistry. A must-visit destination that deserves every bit of its five-star rating.

Just beautifully designed and the architecture is just elegant felt were peace inside the mosque ❣️❣️❣️

Magnificent architecture 😍 and peaceful ambiance .

Masha Allah good place to visit and very peaceful

Stunning is an underrated statement. The rich architectural design is something you can stare at for hours. The beauty of balancing it's size with it's intricacies is a sight you will never forget. This is a must visit for anyone in Oman. Just remember to wear pants as this is a pretty conservative country

masyaAllah another beauty Masjid again in Muscat, see from my pict ❤️❤️

An architectural masterpiece 😍 the details in the place are just amazing There’s also a park surrounding the mosque that is so lovely and i would recommend for morning/afternoons walks or even picnic with the family..

The architecture and the design of this mosque is impressive. The gate is mostly open and you can park your car at the parking and walk around the mosque or you can rest at the garden.

The Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar is a grand royal mosque in Sohar in Al Batinah region of Oman, that was inaugurated in October 2016. Like all new royal mosques, the Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar is open for non-Muslims to visit free of charge from 8am to 11am Saturday to Thursday. If you are visiting Sohar, this is the most magnificent architectural attraction to see. The Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar is very different from other royal mosques and is built in the style of Persian and central Asian Islamic architecture with a touch of Omani architecture. The massive mosque has a large garden, three main entrances, four minarets, and a large blue main dome. The mosque also uniquely integrates wood in its design in a way not common among Omani royal mosques. The interior of the mosque is intricate with subtle colours. The Mihrab ( semi-circular niche in the wall pointing towards the prayer director, or qibla القبلة) is not massive, but it is beautifully tiled in a turquoise and gold palette. The carpet has a horizontally-lined pattern which makes it less artistic than the unlined carpet of the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, but definitely more practical. The central chandelier is magnificent, especially when lit. The main prayer hall accommodates up to 4600 worshipers. There is also a women prayer hall, which I haven’t seen, that accommodates up to 470 worshipers. The Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar is also meant to function as a cultural and social hub, and it has a public library, a couple of classrooms for Islamic studies, a multi-purpose hall for hosting official and cultural events, and a majlis for hosting social events. Sultan Qaboos Mosque in Sohar is open to non-Muslims between 8am and 11am from Saturday to Wednesday. Just like the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, visitors of the mosque must dress conservatively, women cannot show their arms, hair, or legs inside the mosque. These hours permit non-Muslims to enter the prayer halls, all other parts of the mosque may be visited by both Muslims and non-Muslims at any times. For example, it is permitted for non-Muslims to walk around the garden at any time of the day and it is permitted for non-Muslims to visit the library during all its opening hours.
