A third mosque will open at Jumeirah Village Circle in Dubai.
The place of worship will open on Thursday.
It will accommodate 300 people and have a dedicated area for female worshippers.
Accessible from Hessa Street, the mosque is in JVC District 11, in the north-eastern section of the area.
Its opening will coincide with that of Circle Mall in the community.
Nakheel, the developer of both buildings, said a fourth mosque is planned.
While JVC is known for its flats and townhouses, nearby Jumeirah Village Triangle is more popular for its variety of villas.
Nakheel said three mosques would also be built there.
