The Juma Mosque has been inaugurated in the Narimanov district of Baku after major renovation and reconstruction carried out at the initiative of the President of Azerbaijan.
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva attended the event.
The Juma Mosque, which opened its doors in 1998, fell into disrepair over the years. The major renovation initiated by President Ilham Aliyev in 2021 was completed in April this year.
Two new minarets were constructed instead of the older ones, which had been in poor condition. The mosque received a new ablution facility, and the necessary infrastructure was constructed.
The mosque can accommodate some 600 worshippers. The first floor is allocated for men, while the second is for women.
