The mosque

A mosque is a place of worship for Muslims, where they come together to pray, learn, and engage in community activities. It serves as a spiritual center, often featuring a prayer hall, minarets for calling to prayer, and areas for ritual washing. Mosques can vary in size and design, reflecting cultural influences. They play a significant role in the Islamic faith, providing a space for the five daily prayers, especially on Fridays, the holy day for communal worship. Beyond prayer, mosques often offer educational programs and social services, fostering a sense of community among their members.
