The first mosque in National Industries Park (NIP) will be open for worshippers in next year before the holy month of Ramadan next year. The mosque will accommodate more than 2,000 worshippers, and can house 1,000 people inside and an additional 1,000 outside to serve workers and residents of the area and nearby.
Danube Group will construct this mosque, the decision was taken for the same on Tuesday by senior officials of Danube Group, National Industries Park and General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments (Awqaf). The construction is actively underway and is anticipated to be completed within the next year.
This is second mosque being built in Dubai by the Danube Group. The first was built in Dubai Studio City.
“We are excited to embark on this meaningful journey of building the first mosque in National Industries Park. This mosque is not just a place of worship but a symbol of our continuous efforts to serve the community and provide essential infrastructure. It aligns with our values of inclusivity, unity, and giving back to the society we operate in,” said Rizwan Sajan, chairman and founder of Danube Group.
“The commencement of this community project marks an important milestone for the thousands of workers and residents in NIP and the surrounding areas. We are honoured to see the start of construction and appreciate Danube Group’s commitment to supporting social welfare. This mosque exemplifies the spirit of inclusivity and compassion that drives progress and strengthens our community bonds,” said Abdulla Al Hashmi, chief operating officer of Parks and Zones at DP World GCC.
