From Al-Masjid al-Haram to Al-Masjid al-Aqsa

A Mosque Inspired by the
Dome of the Rock

In 1984, ICC Tempe Mosque was established just north of the campus of Arizona State University (ASU) in Tempe, Arizona. Its beautiful architecture is modeled after the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem; the eight-sided structure has a minaret and a gold dome. Prior to establishing the center, Muslims used to gather in local homes or commute to Phoenix mosques for Friday prayers.
