Grand Husseini Mosque

Located at the heart of downtown Amman, the mosque stands on the site of an earlier mosque that was built during the reign of Caliph Omar Ben Al Khattab’s (634-644 AD) and renovated during the Umayyad era (661-750AD), the documents show. I have also added its historical pictures which indicated before and now situation of the masjid.

Currently undergoing major renovations. Otherwise, always a wonderful Masjid to pray at especially that it's an important part of Amman's heritage. (It was built on the Capital's main street more than 100 years ago!)

One of the oldest mosques in Amman, rebuilt by King Abdullah I in 1932 on the site of the one built by the second Caliph, Omar Bin Al-Khattab around 640 AD. Tourists may be able to enter if dressed appropriately. Close to this mosque are two famous souqs: Souq Bukharia (good for getting souvenirs) and Souq Al-Sukar (fruit, vegetables, nuts and spices.

Good mosque in the city center 🕌
The mosque is very spacious, organized and very nice designed, but recently it needs some renovations because it’s old. Other than that the place is great machallah

One of the oldest mosques in Amman, it was built by the second caliph, Omar Bin Alkhattab back in 640AD and was rebuilt in 1932 buly King Abdulla I.
It is close to roman theater and famous souqs (shops for traditional accessories souvenirs and wear) souq bukharia for souvenirs and souq alsukar for fresh vegetables, fruits and spices.

Historical mosque worth seeing when in Amman imo. Originally built in Omar R.A's era and then rebuilt in 1921 by the current ruler family.

Beautiful mosque in center of the city.
Its one of oldest mosuqe. Difficult to find parking nearby.
Surrounded by market for clothes, souvenirs etc.

Non-muslims are also welcomed. The shop next to the mosque is very expensive, but with a goodwill (local handmade products, to support local craftsmen & help children).

The mosque was originally built in 640 during the reign of the second Caliph Hazrat Umar bin Al-Khattab. The old mosque was completely rebuilt in the 1920's in the Ottoman style. It was later restored and expanded during the 1980's in King Hussein's reign.
Located in Downtown Amman, it is hard to miss. Once you enter the mosque, the beautifully adorned fountain is the definite centrepiece. It's hard not to be impressed by how beautiful it looks. The prayer hall is beautifully adorned too.
If you come here just after or before prayer time, it can be hectic with the throngs of worshippers. There are various vendors outside which just add to the feel of the place. I would definitely recommend visiting this gem of a place.

A lovely mosque worth visiting in Amman in the heart of the city.very nice.

One of the oldest mosques in amman

Must see place for tourist
Just muslims Can pray inside
Under renovation

I like praying there whenever I be at down town, especially on Fridays.

One of the oldest buildings in town,

There is a clean abolition place in the women section. The ground flour has benchmarks to pray. The upper floor is wide & relaxing to worship in. The mosque has a taste of art of Islamic history building

Love that the beautiful Quranic recitation from the prayers can be heard in the streets. Iconic and genuine feel inside. Great place to chill. I think there's only space for men.

Loved the beautiful voice of Sheikh. very beautiful and peaceful. Insha'Allah I'll visit again.

This is the oldest mosque in the city of Amman, further than being a worship place; the whole area has become very touristic to all religion and races.
The mosque was renovated many times but still owns its original orientalist structure.

Historical mosque. The entrance is not allowed for non muslims.

Must visit location especially during cool evenings..In the city center, lot of places to eat around this structure. The fruit Juices are very good in the outlets near to this location
