The Mary, Mother of Jesus Mosque, also known as Maryam Umm Eisa Masjid, is a mosque located in Al mushrif, a central neighborhood in the city of Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the United Arab Emirates. 

The mosque was built in 1989 and was originally named after Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler of Abu Dhabi. However, on June 14, 2017, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan decided to rename the mosque to "Mary, Mother of Jesus Mosque" as an initiative exemplifying the values of co-existence among religions in the UAE, as well as to honor Mary. 


The renaming of the mosque shows what unites Christians and Muslims, said Sheikha Lubna Al Qasimi, Minister of State for Tolerance. The name change was done to "consolidate bonds of humanity between followers of different religions," according to Gulf News

Location: 810106, Samaru, Kaduna, Nigeria
