Mosques

Aswān, a historic city on the Nile, is home to a well-established network of mosques and prayer rooms that serve the local Muslim community. Based on available mapped records, there are 20 listed prayer places within a 50 km radius, with the highest concentration in the central district of Sheyakhah Thalethah (Aswan 1). This area alone hosts several prominent mosques, including Tabea Mosque (0.2 km), Al-Shanqrab Mosque (0.1 km), Al-Khalifa Mosque (0.3 km), Al-Nasr Mosque In Aswan (0.4 km), Ahmed Ibn Idris Mosque (0.4 km), Al-Qadi Mosque (0.4 km), and Al-Sayyid Al-Badawi Mosque (1.6 km). These mosques are located along streets such as Al Meridab and within the broader Sheyakhah Thalethah sector, making this district a key hub for daily prayers and community gatherings.

Beyond the city center, prayer places are also present in other areas of Aswan. In Aswan 2 (the second district), notable mosques include Abdel Moneim Riad Mosque (1.8 km), Al-Firdous Mosque (2.2 km), and Al-Salehin Mosque (3.2 km). The Aswan University Hospital Mosque (1 km) serves the Kasr Al Hager area, while Al-Hakroub Mosque (1.4 km) is located in the second district (ثان). Further out, Al-Rahma Mosque (5.8 km) is situated in the Naga Al-Kurur area of Sheyakhah Thaniah (first Aswan). This distribution shows that prayer facilities are available across multiple sectors of the city, from the central Sheyakhah Thalethah to the outskirts.
