## History

The construction of the mosque started in 2007.

The mosque can accommodate up to 150 worshippers in its 520-square-metre (5,600 sq ft) main prayer hall. It is divided into two floors where the ground floor is for male patrons and the upper floor is for female. It consists of a [minaret](/source/Minaret) and a dome that has an outer height of 19 metres (62 ft).[1]
