The Grand Mosque in Kuwait City, completed in 1986, is Kuwait's largest mosque, commanding an expansive footprint of 45,000 square metres with the building itself occupying 20,000 square metres. Its main prayer hall, a perfect square of 72 metres on all sides, is distinguished by teakwood doors and illuminated by 144 windows that flood the interior with natural light, exemplifying Islamic architectural principles in a contemporary setting.
