Al Sahaba Mosque is one of the most prominent modern landmarks in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Located in the heart of the Old Market, the mosque was completed in 2017 after six years of construction, with funding from the Egyptian government and private donors. It was designed by renowned Egyptian architect Fouad Tawfik Hafez.

The mosque features classical Ottoman and Mamluk elements, including two minarets each standing 76 meters tall, a central dome with intricate calligraphy, and a vast prayer hall that can accommodate up to 3,000 worshippers. Beyond serving as a place of prayer, the mosque includes lecture halls, libraries, and a cultural center that promotes Islamic education and intercultural dialogue.

The mosque is visible from many parts of the city and has become a key destination for tourists seeking cultural experiences in Sharm El Sheikh.^[1]
