The Al Farooq Omar Bin Al Khattab Mosque (Arabic: مسجد ومركز الفاروق عمر بن الخطاب) is a mosque located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The mosque is named after Umar bin Al Khattab, a companion of Muhammad who became the second Caliph after Abu Bakr and was given the title Al Farooq, meaning someone who distinguished truth from falsehood. The original Al Farooq Omar Bin Al Khattab Mosque was established on the same site in 1986.
The building was renovated twice, in 2003 and later in 2011 by the order of Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor, the chairman of the business empire that bears his family name. It was opened to the public on July 29, 2011.[1]
The Al Farooq Omar Bin Al Khattab Mosque can accommodate 2,000 worshipers.
