    King Saud masjid is largest masjid in Jeddah. It is named after 2nd King of Saudi Arabia and the eldest son of King Abdul Aziz. The mosque itself is rectangular, almost square, with a rectangular court built somewhat offset to the west. Four iwans open to the central court. The iwans are not emphasized as individual structures as in the Persian examples but are mere openings in a large screen wall. The north and south iwans are each set in front of a domed hall that separate four pillared halls to the east and west. The west halls are divided by two pillars each into three naves with to bays. The larger east halls have three naves with five bays and eight pillars each. The east iwan is the largest and connects the court to the largest domed hall that rises between the longer pillared halls in front of the qibla wall. Irregularly shaped rooms fill the triangular spaces between the actual mosque and the outside facade on the north, south and east wall because the mosque is built at an angle to the street grid so that the qibla wall may point to Makkah. The west facade opens to the Medinah Road with a large cubic structure added to the northern end. The minaret of the mosque towers over the south west corner of this structure that has a large iwan opening to the south leading into a domed hall that connects to a corridor that runs along the west wall of the mosque. This large Iwan with the minaret on the left and the mosque connecting at a right angle to the right, both accessible by a flight of steps, form an iconic group that easily catches the eye when looking north along the Medinah road.

    الحمد لله اول بلا بدايه والأخر بلا نهاية I just prayed Eid ul fitr prayer over here ما شاء الله تبارك الله The atmosphere was great and the voices of the muezzins that were chanting the takbeer were beautiful However, there seems to be a bit of a problem with the Air Conditioning as it was sweltering to pray here (I've heard from some of my friends that this problem has persisted since Ramadan) but I'm sure that إن شاء الله it will be sorted out

    A nice beautiful big well maintained masjid at past. But now it’s poorly maintained. No cleaning of the masjid. No proper air conditioning.

    This is one of the worst masjid I have been in my life. Dirtiest and filthiest masjid and it is filled with insects. I was so scared and it felt like I am in a trash. And the staff were very bad too. Please fix this masijd. This is Bait-ul-Allah not a trash can

    I have been attending this mosque from my childhood. It hasn't changed much, it is so spacious and buzzing with people in a positive way. Their AC is not cold enough to sustain people and that makes us very uncomfortable. Inshallah, we hope they will fix it soon.

👍👍 This is one of my favorite mosques in Jeddah. Being right beside the shore it’s an iconic landmark of Jeddah city. If you’re a tourist visiting the city make sure to visit this mosque and soak in all the beautiful views it has to offer.

😐 Good Mosque located in one of the premium locality in Jeddah. The mosque is spacious but they need to upgrade the washroom since the traffic to the mosque is more than the normal traffic.

👍👍 Sums up what an ideal mosque in a modern, urban environment must look like. Minimalistic design and interiors. Washroom and ablution area is very clean as well.
