The Mohammad Rasul-Allah Mosque is a mosque located within the grounds of the Namazi hospital in Shiraz, in the province of Fars, Iran. The mosque was completed in 2016.

Overview

The mosque was designed without a traditional courtyard;[1] however, it integrates the elements of traditional Islamic architecture combined with Persian specifics and modern sustainable methods including elements of modern design.[2][3] A minaret is located adjacent to the two entrances, that are connected to a riwaq or arcade, formed by a perforated curtain wall with Islamic geometric patterns.[1] The interior of the mosque features calligraphy, stucco work, and muqarnas.[4]

The mosque is built around an old prayer hall surrounded by trees, which used to be part of a garden on the hospital site.[1] As of 2023, the trees were estimated to be 70 years old.[5]
