Al Bidya Mosque

visited Al Bidya Mosque, and it’s a small but very peaceful and beautiful place for worship. 🕌✨ The mosque has a calm atmosphere that gives a true spiritual feeling. There are toilet facilities and drinking water facilities available for visitors, which makes it very convenient. The area is clean and well maintained, and the view around the mosque is also nice. Overall, a wonderful historical place to visit and pray — highly recommended for anyone visiting Fujairah. 🌿🙏

⸻ It is a very fascinating historical place for travelers. If you plan to visit, I recommend dressing modestly out of respect for the local religion and culture. Inside the mosque, you are required to cover your head and wear an abaya. If you are not dressed appropriately, the staff provide abayas for visitors to borrow free of charge. Inside, if I understand correctly, there may be people performing prayers, and they require peace and quiet. As tourists, we should respect the local Muslim community and strictly follow the rules. I truly love this place—it’s peaceful, beautiful, and captivating. It is definitely a destination worth visiting.

A must-visit historical site! 🕌 The Al Badiyah Mosque is the oldest mosque in the UAE, beautifully preserved and surrounded by stunning mountain views. Peaceful, spiritual, and full of history, a truly special place to visit.

Al Bidya Mosque is a hidden gem . It’s so peaceful, so beautiful, and one of the oldest mosques in the UAE. The kind staff offered us abayas with a big smile and let us sit inside as long as we wished, soaking in the calm and the holiness of the place . I love visiting mosques, even just to glance at them they radiate peace, and the best part is how welcoming they are to everyone. This place touched my heart.❤️

Very well maintained place got chance to pray Duhar in the mosque. The place is clean and tidy the staff around is very helpful if you need Kandora or Abaya for ladies they provide free. Highly recommended!
