The **Punto Fijo Mosque** ([Spanish](/source/Spanish_language): *Mezquita de Punto Fijo*) is a [mosque](/source/Mosque) located in the city of [Punto Fijo](/source/Punto_Fijo) on the [Paraguaná Peninsula](/source/Paraguan%C3%A1_Peninsula), in the autonomous municipality of Carirubana in the northern part of [Falcón State](/source/Falc%C3%B3n_State), [Venezuela](/source/Venezuela).[1][2][3]

It was established in 2008 owing to the growth of the Muslim community near the [duty-free area](/source/Free_Trade_Zone) of Paraguaná.[4][5]

In 2012, during the events surrounding the [Amuay Refinery](/source/Amuay_Refinery) incident, the Muslim community showed solidarity by collecting and donating supplies of food and clothing.
