The Faisal Mosque is a famous mosque located in Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan. It was completed in 1986 and is named after King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, who provided financial support for its construction.
The mosque was designed by Turkish architect Vedat Dalokay and features a unique and modernist design that blends traditional Islamic and contemporary architectural styles. It is one of the largest mosques in the world, with a capacity to accommodate up to 100,000 worshippers at a time.
The Faisal Mosque is built on a hilly area, and its minarets and the main prayer hall are designed to look like an Arab Bedouin's tent. The mosque's white marble facade is complemented by a striking interior design, with intricate geometric patterns and calligraphy adorning the walls and ceilings.
The mosque also features four minarets that are 80 meters tall and a large courtyard, which can hold up to 200,000 worshippers during special events such as Eid prayers.
