The historical Mohammed Al-Muqbel mosque, which is believed to be the first mosque to be built in Al-Basr district in Buraidah in Qassim region, north of Riyadh, and dates back to pre-1378 AH, has been renovated as part of the Mohammed bin Salman Project for Historical Mosques Renovation in the Kingdom, under which 30 mosques in 10 regions will be restored and rehabilitated. The Mosque, which some used to call Al Mansi Mosque, was built by a member of the Al-Muhaimeed family where it used to host worshippers for Friday Prayer. Sheikh Mohammed Saleh Al-Muqbel was one of its main Imams who used to lead the prayers while the prayer calls used to be raised by Sheikh Saleh Al-Abdulaziz Al-Muhaimeed for nearly 50 years. Located 10 km from the city center of Buraidah, Al-Muqbel Mosque is featured by its construction in the Najdi style from stone and clay with a wooden roof built from Taramix and Palm fronds at a total area of around (430 square meters). The mosque used to accommodate nearly (88) worshipers and consisted of a prayer house, a roofless courtyard, restrooms, a depot, and a recently built ablution area. The mosque is ready to receive worshippers after the renovation process. It can accommodate up to 156 worshippers and currently includes a prayer house for men and women, a courtyard, a depot, restrooms, and ablution places.
