New Mosque Opens in Qatar’s Fereej Kulaib to Serve Growing Community

IQNA – Qatar’s Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs (Awqaf) has inaugurated a new mosque in Fereej Kulaib, offering expanded worship facilities to meet the needs of the growing community.

The Ali Mubarak Rabia Al Kuwari Mosque, which spans 639 square meters, accommodates up to 198 worshippers, according to an official statement, Gulf Times reported on Saturday.

The mosque, registered as MS M.S. 237, includes a main prayer hall for 126 worshippers and a mezzanine-level hall with room for 72.

The mosque features a spacious ablution area, accessible entrances, and dedicated parking spaces for persons with disabilities. Additional facilities include residences for both the imam and the muezzin.

This opening is part of Awqaf’s broader initiative to increase the number of mosques nationwide, aligned with Qatar National Vision 2030.

The Department of Engineering Affairs oversees mosque design and maintenance, focusing on heritage preservation and sustainable construction. Awqaf's website provides location-based navigation to facilitate access to mosques across Qatar.

Through this initiative, Awqaf aims to ensure that worship spaces are accessible and supportive of Qatar's urban and population growth.
