INUVIK, NORTHWEST TERRITORIES, CANADA:

The third northernmost mosque in the world... After Tromso, Norway; and Norilsk, Russia.

It is one of the mosques that are located above the Arctic Circle. Thus, its prayer schedule is adjusted to Edmonton's (at 53N; which is 15 degrees south)

HASSAN II MOSQUE | CASABLANCA , MOROCCO

The Hassan II Mosque is the highest religious building in the world (210m /689 ft) & the third largest mosque in the world after the Masjid al-Haram (Grand Mosque) of Mecca and the Al-Masjid al-Nabawi (Prophet's Mosque) in Medina.

It stands on a promontory looking out to the Atlantic, which can be seen through a gigantic glass floor with room for 25,000 worshippers. A further 80,000 can be accommodated in the mosque's adjoining grounds.

None of these are large, or what you would call clasically beautiful. However, they are important to the faithful they serve.

This is probably one of the oldest mosques in Western Europe (built circa 1778 – 1791)

BOSNIAN MOSQUES-From orinental to modern designs.

I'm just going to briefly compare the architecture from historic to modern times. The list is too long to name each mosque and it's location. For more information, please visit our thread dedicated to religus architecture throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina:

Gazi Husrev Bey's mosque located in the old district of Sarajevo :
