Ali
“I visited Mustafa Mosque (مسجد المصطفى) and was deeply impressed by its serene atmosphere and beautiful architecture. The mosque features elegant Islamic design, with intricate decorations, arches, and calligraphy that reflect traditional craftsmanship. Inside, the space is calm and inviting, providing a perfect environment for reflection and prayer. The mosque is well-maintained, and the staff are courteous and welcoming to visitors. Visiting offers not only a spiritual experience but also an opportunity to appreciate the artistry and cultural significance of Islamic architecture. Mustafa Mosque is highly recommended for anyone interested in history, culture, or architecture in the area

Beautiful mosque but nothing special unfortunately it was closed so it was only viewable from the outside. Note that this is in the middle of the highway and residential areas meaning that after taking a taxi here, you’d need to get another taxi to take you back/to your next destination.

We didn’t do a tour, simply booked a taxi here using the local app. Wife covered up using her own head scarfs. Other coach party groups were getting a twenty minute tour of the outside. We stayed around half an hour, it was not open and so we simply looked around the outside and took photos of the buildings.

First time in a Mosque and it's different than a church lot cooler and open plan glad I went so well worth a visit the wife had to wait at the door as its men only down stairs
Tracey
We went to the Mustafa Mosque and enjoyed our visit. Woman must wear suitable clothes and cover up head to toe. There is a lady that provides Egyptian clothing near the entrance to the Mosque to lend while inside. Would recommend visiting. You’re not allowed in while pray time is taking place.
