Islamic Mosque

An Islamic mosque is a place of worship for Muslims, serving as a community center for prayer, reflection, and learning. It typically features a prayer hall where Muslims gather for communal prayers, often five times a day. Many mosques have a minaret, a tower used historically for calling the faithful to prayer, and a mihrab, a niche indicating the direction of Mecca, which Muslims face during prayer. Mosques also host educational activities, community events, and social services. They symbolize spiritual devotion and communal unity within the Islamic faith.
