Abdul Rahman Mosque, also known as the Grand Mosque of Kabul, is one of the largest and most significant mosques in Afghanistan. Located in the heart of Kabul, near the bustling Shahr-e-Naw area, the mosque stands as a prominent architectural and spiritual landmark. Construction of the mosque began in 2001 and was completed in 2012, funded primarily by the late Afghan businessman Haji Abdul Rahman. The mosque features a blend of traditional Islamic and modern architectural styles, with its grand dome, minarets, and intricate tile work.
