New mosque
Sep 2023 • Solo
Returning to Baku after a day-trip to Gobustan, you will drive the Bibi-Heybat Mosque. It is a complete 1990s rebuild to recreate the original one of the 13th century, which served as a tomb to Ukeyma Khanum, a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad. As they did so often, the Soviets razed it to the ground and it took Heydar Aliyev to order a new one.
Not a spectacular mosque, but obviously an important one for local believers.

A place of worship.
Sep 2023 • Solo
The Historical Mosque rebuilt on an ancient structure is the center of worship and well preserved. Nice open yard , panoramic views of the port, consisting of the tomb of Ukeyma Khanum (a descendant of Prophet Muhammad), and today attract one and all for its scenic beauty and grand architecture. Alexander Dumas, a French Traveller who visited this place in the 1850s called it the Mosque of Fatima. As this is a place of worship, better to dress properly suitable to the place.

Reminds you the history

We visited with family and found this historical mosque. No so big. I saw many Shiat brothers and sisters there attending the graveyards.

The place is still standing high, physically and geographically at the top. I had been there at that place three years ago. I found it last time and this time remain great with many visitors.

Beautiful Place
Nov 2019
The mosque overlooks the Caspian sea. It is beautifully designed, and the location is pretty nice. It is not a really big mosque, but it looks great.

Beautiful mosque
Oct 2019
Beautiful mosque of a descendant of the Holy prophet, peace be upon him. Prayers were really good there - slow and deep. Everyone shakes hand with everyone else praying at the end of the service , rather than just the people next to you, which i found was very nice.

Grand but kitschy
Sep 2019
The interior (no shorts!) is a bit kitschy but the interior is "clean". Good strange views over the ugly sea.
