Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab Mosque


Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab Mosque

Today I went to the Qatar State Mosque.  The Qatar Women's Association invited some ladies to attend a lecture entitled “Bank of Good Will” by Sheikha Muftah, from Qatar Charity Organization. Sheikha Muftah shared her experience in Relief Projects and Charity Aid in different countries around the world accompanied with pictures. Simultaneous translation was provided. The lecture was very informative about what Qatar Charity Organization had achieved to help other countries and people in need. The lecture was given in the womens' section of the mosque, which is very beautiful.

Complimentary Abayas were provided as well. You can see mine below. We were given Arabic coffee and sweets (all of which was very yummy).

The mosque covers a total area of 175,164 sq.m. As many as 11,000 men can offer prayers in the central hall of the mosque and the adjacent special enclosure is spacious enough for 1200 women.
