The Abu Darwish Mosque is a historic mosque located in Amman, Jordan. It was built in 1961 in the Jabal al-Qala'a area of the city, on the site of an ancient Byzantine church that was later used as a mosque during the Islamic era.

The mosque is named after Abu Darwish, a famous 13th-century Muslim scholar and theologian. The mosque's design features a blend of modern and traditional Islamic architectural elements. It is characterized by a large central dome and two minarets, which rise to a height of 35 meters.

The interior of the mosque is decorated with intricate geometric patterns and calligraphy, and is able to accommodate up to 7,000 worshipers at a time. The mosque is open to visitors of all faiths, and is considered one of the most important landmarks in Amman.
