The mosque is an architectural masterpiece, and one of the largest mosques in the world, with a capacity of about forty thousand worshippers.
The idea to establish the mosque was a cherished dream of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan ”may God rest his soul”, who drew up the overall vision of the mosque. At last the dream came true after many years.
Standout features of the mosque’s design are its pure white marble cladding, as well as the Quranic inscriptions and Islamic decorations on the walls that reflect the unique character of the mosque and lend it its attractive visual aesthetic.
