The Al Fatiha Mosque is a mosque in Port-au-Prince, Ouest Department, Haiti.

History

[edit]

The space where the mosque stands today was purchased in 1993.[1] Until 1995, the mosque was a single prayer room without a formal name. In 1995 Abdul Ali had donated his half land of his house for construction of a proper mosque. The mosque map was designed by Muhammad Ameer of Pakistan and major portion of fund was also donated by him.[citation needed]

In 2010, the mosque was damaged by the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Later, the mosque was completely renovated and restored.[2]
