A Muslim mosque is a place of worship for followers of Islam. It serves as a community center where Muslims gather for daily prayers, especially on Fridays for the congregational prayer known as Jumu'ah. Mosques often feature a large prayer hall, a minaret for calling the faithful to prayer, and sometimes a courtyard. In addition to prayer, mosques can host educational activities, social events, and community services. They often display beautiful architecture, with intricate designs and calligraphy that reflect Islamic art. Mosques are open to everyone, promoting understanding and respect among different cultures and religions.
