🎥 Construction of the Faisal Mosque began in 1976 by Saudi King Faisal, whose name the mosque bears. The unconventional design by Turkish architect Vedat Dalokay was selected after an international competition. The mosque is shaped like a Bedouin tent surrounded by four 260 feet tall minarets. It is the largest mosque in Pakistan. The structure covers an area of 54,000 square feet. Faisal Mosque is now the fourth largest mosque in terms of capacity. The mosque can accommodate about 10,000 worshipers in its main prayer hall, 24,000 in its porticos, and 40,000 in its courtyard. The mosque was completed in 1986 and used to house the International Islamic University. Many conservative Muslims criticized the design at first for its unconventional design and lack of a traditional dome structure. Although it is allegedly based on the shape of a Bedouin Tent, the Faisal mosque looks more like an interstellar spaceport.
Employing modern architecture, higher-level geometry, and a reference to the holiest site in Mecca, the Faisal Mosque is a unique confluence of Islamic inspiration across generations. The excellent design of the mosque is sure to intrigue and inspire students of architecture. It is a combination of medieval as well as modern building concepts. Faisal mosque has four minarets. The large crescent at the top of the main structure and four small crescents at the minarets are found in rough condition as the brass crescents have not been polished for the last many years. If you take a minute and look at them, you will find a visible influence of the Turkish architectural style of yesteryears. It is one of the major sightseeing places in Islamabad and you cannot miss a visit here.
