The Masjid Al Ghamama (Clouds mosque) dates from the 13th century, in the period of Mamluk rule, and is named after the clouds that appeared when the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) made the special prayers for rain in this place. Its alternative name is Masjid Al Eid because the Prophet performed Eid prayers here in the last few years of his life.

Collection : King Fahad National Library.
