Every time we pass this mosque (pictured in its entirety below) I try to get a shot of the dome – it’s become a challenge to line it up properly (which I managed to this time, but there was a lot of distortion since I was almost on top of it). This is the largest mosque in Riyadh and considered to be one of the most significant Islamic institutions in the city. Juma’ah Kotbah (Friday prayers) are translated into over seven different languages and for the hearing impaired through multiple LCD screens. The mosque holds two libraries, forensic science courses, an automated utilities system, an 18,000-person capacity for the men’s hall and 2,500 for the women’s area. (From Destination Riyadh)
