Al-Bidya Mosque (Gulf Arabic: مَسْجِد ٱلْبِدْيَة, romanized: Masjid Al-Bidyah, sometimes transliterated as Al-Bidiyah (ٱلْبِدِيَة) or Al-Badiyah (ٱلْبَدِيَة)) is a historical mosque in the Emirate of Fujairah, the U.A.E. It was the oldest known mosque in the country,[2] prior to the discovery in September 2018 of the ruins of a 1000-year-old mosque dating back to the Islamic Golden Age, near the Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Mosque in the city of Al Ain, Emirate of Abu Dhabi.[3][4] Still in use, it is located in the small village of Al-Badiyah or Al-Bidiyah, about 40 km (25 mi) north of the Emirate's capital city,[5] and is also known as the "Ottoman Mosque".[1][6]
