Rahman Mosque stands near the Beirut corniche in the Raoucheh and Manara district, a contemporary mosque serving the western neighbourhoods of the capital. The name al Rahman, the Merciful, is one of the names of God in the Quran, and it identifies this building among the city’s many mosques. It is a living prayer hall close to the Pigeon Rocks and the lighthouse walk. Dress modestly and do not enter the prayer hall as a tourist during salah. The corniche at sunset is the natural complement. For mosque searches in West Beirut, Rahman is a specific coastal address.
