Calle Guadalajara, Esquina Calle 8, Torreon, Coahuila
This is the only purpose-built mosque in the whole of Mexico! It has a beautiful construction with a dome and a minaret. Inside, there is a prayer hall with no minbar and without a delimited area for women. Beside, there is a small library, and an office. The ablution area is clean and comfortable. In the basement there is a big hall that is used for occasional lectures. Unfortunately the place is not open on a regular basis, and it hardly hosts a small number of people for the Friday prayer. The majority of those attending are Mexicans of Lebanese descent. The Imam, Mr. Hassan Zain, is the architect of the mosque as well. He hasn't shown any sectarian tendencies and welcomes all Muslim visitors from any school.
