List of mosques in Mexico

This is a list of notable mosques in Mexico (Arabic: Masjid, Spanish: Mezquita), including Islamic places of worship that do not qualify as traditional mosques.

Suraya Mosque, the first mosque in Mexico

As of 2018, there are more than 10 established mosques in Mexico.[1] Muslim-friendly facilities are not widely available, there are a few prayer facilities spread across the country. These Muslim-friendly facilities are used by the local Muslim community, and increasingly by Muslim tourists.[1]
