History

edit

This Ali Jimale mosque, a large modern mosque, was built in Mogadishu, and it can pray for up to 5,000 people.[1] The Ali Jimale mosque was built near Mogadishu airport by businessman Ahmed-Nur Ali Jimale, and it cost $12 million.[2] The land it sits on was provided by the government of Somalia.

Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud performed the Eid Al Adha prayer alongside Prime Minister Hamza Abdi Barre, MPs,[3] government officials and hundreds of people at the newly constructed Ali Jimale Mosque in Mogadishu,[4][5] whose design was modeled on the mosques of Turkey.
