Mosques

Al Ḩawāmidīyah, located in the Giza Governorate, serves as a residential and industrial hub for Muslims in the greater Cairo area. The mapped data shows that while the city itself has few listed mosques, the surrounding region within a 50 km radius includes over 20 prayer places, many of which are historic landmarks in Cairo and Giza. This proximity allows residents and visitors in Al Ḩawāmidīyah to access a wide range of mosques for daily prayers, Jumu'ah, and religious gatherings.

The listed prayer places are concentrated in several districts of Cairo and Giza. In Old Cairo, you will find the historic Amr ibn al-As Mosque, one of the oldest in Africa. The El Khalifa district hosts several notable mosques, including Sayida Aisha Masjed, the Mosque-Madrasa of Sultan Hassan, and the Imam Shafi'i Mosque. El Gamaliya is home to Al-Azhar Mosque, Al-Hakim Mosque, and the Sultan Al-Ashraf Qaytbay Mosque and Mausoleum. Other areas with significant mosque presence include El Sayeda Zeinab (Ibn Tulun Mosque and Mosque of Sayyida Zainab), El-Darb El-Ahmar (Al-Rifa'i Mosque and Mosque of Sultan al-Muayyad Shaykh), and Dokki (Mustafa Mahmoud Mosque).

For those in Al Ḩawāmidīyah, the closest major mosques include Amr ibn al-As Mosque (12.4 km) and Imam Shafi'i Mosque (12.5 km), both in the El Khalifa area. The historic Mosque of Muhammad Ali (14.4 km) in the Saladin district and Ibn Tulun Mosque (14.3 km) in El Sayeda Zeinab are also within easy reach. Further afield, the Al-Fattah Al-Aleem Mosque in the New Administrative Capital (36.5 km) and Masjed Al Ashraf Al Gamei Al Kabeer in Obour (44.7 km) extend the options for worshippers. These listings are based on available mapped records and provide a practical guide for Muslims in Al Ḩawāmidīyah seeking prayer places nearby.

Check the address and distance of each mosque before visiting, as some are far from Al Ḩawāmidīyah. Contact information and opening hours are not provided in the listings; verify directly with the mosque for prayer times and services. Many mosques are in historic areas with limited parking; plan your route accordingly.
