Ibn Uthman Mosque

Gaza City, Palestine · built 1430

The Ibn Uthman Mosque (Jami Ibn 'Uthman) is a destroyed mosque situated along Suq Street ("Bazaar Street") in the Turukman Quarter in the southeastern Shuja'iyya district of Gaza City, in the Gaza Strip, in the State of Palestine. It is regarded as second only to the Great Mosque of Gaza in terms of beauty and status as a Friday mosque. Noted for its architectural patterns, the mosque was established in three different stages during the Burji Mamluk period of rule in Gaza. The mosque was destroyed in 2024 as part of the Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip. The large Shuja'iyya Market is located across the building and the mosque lies below street level, with its exterior no longer intact.
