Grand Mosque of Kuwait

This was the first attraction I visited in Kuwait City, and it did not disappoint! The building is absolutely glorious, the main hall is breathtaking in both size and beauty. The architecture is stunning and truly worth seeing. Entrance is free, and there are tours available in English, which makes the experience even more engaging. A must-see landmark in Kuwait City!.

This s my first visit to the Grand Mosque of Kuwait. From outside, this mosque look descent and humble. But when I entered the mosque, it is marvelous, beautiful interior, fantastic dome, beautiful carpet, bluish and golden color make the interior so amazing. It is filled with Islamic calligraphy, all over the wall and the dome. In its exhibition hall, it has some calligraphy too from other countries such as China. You need to wear your cloth properly, and for ladies, you need to wear cloth that cover your body from top to toe (hijab, headscarf). Very beautiful.

Free guided tour provided as long as you follow the allocated time for guided tours. Some confusing information found online on the opening times for visiting this mosque. Do not come on Friday and Sunday. Though external of the mosque compound doesn't look as mesmerizing as other mosque in GCC, the internal decoration of the mosque has its own unique beauty. What I feel the best is the warm welcome of the guide and the free drinks (juice, tea, coffee, hot chocolate) and snacks provided in the reception area. This you won't get at any other bigger mosque in this region.

The Visitor timings are from Sunday to Thursday Early morning to 6.30 as mentioned at the premises through visitor gate 7. There was ample parking space and we were guided by the security staff precisely. Refreshments and the traditional wear for women were available at the reception area and the tour was a guided one.

2025.05.05 I visited here Mashaa Allah this is the best place in Kuwait. All staffs are very kind, very supportive and they give us respect. I have visited many places in Kuwait but this is number one in everything. Also who ever staying in Kuwait or plan to visit Kuwait every one need to visit here. Most important thing this staffs know English well they talking with us in English that is very important. Personally I give 5 stars for the staffs only.

The Grand Mosque of Kuwait offers a breathtaking spiritual experience, especially during Ramaḍān. Praying behind Shaykh Mishary Rāshid and Shaykh Ahmad an-Nufais was truly uplifting, with the serene ambience enhancing the beauty of the Qurʾān’s recitation. May Allāh reward the organisers for their efforts in creating such a memorable atmosphere.

A beautiful and majestic mosque in Kuwait City. Tour guides are friendly and we enjoyed a pleasant and informative tour!

A Decent Tour of the Grand Mosque of Kuwait My visit to the Grand Mosque of Kuwait was a worthwhile experience, largely due to the guided tour. The mosque itself is quite impressive, and having a knowledgeable guide really helped in appreciating its scale and design. The tour provided good insights into both the mosque's architecture and its place within Islamic traditions and Kuwaiti culture. We explored various sections, from the main prayer hall to some of the more detailed areas. The guide did a solid job of explaining the significance of what we were seeing, which added a lot to the visit. It was a well-structured tour that offered a decent understanding of this important landmark. Instagram: Officialcarloslopez
