TheManaratain Mosque (Arabic:مسجد المنارتين,lit. 'Mosque of the two towers') is aSunniIslammosque located inMedina,Saudi Arabia.
The mosque is named as "two towers" because it is located in between two mountains which were dubbed as two towers. The place has the old main street towardsMecca on the left hand side betweenAmberiye mosque and the two mosque ring lane, after the gas station. In the beginning, this mosque was built only by rocks, and seeing the importance of its historical value that exists in the region, it was restored and expanded during the rule of KingFahd bin Abdul Aziz in 2003.[1]
The mosque was built by the people ofSahabah, and it was originally named as Mosque of Bani Dinar because it was built on the settlement of Bani Dinar tribe. Slums in this area continue to exist until today, and it is located on the southern neighborhood of Al-Khudhar, behind Al-'Assaf gas station.
