Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox religious building
The Ar-Rahman Mosque is a mosque in Pyongyang, North Korea on the grounds of the Iranian embassy, and is considered the country's first and only mosque. Embassy staff from other Islamic countries in North Korea including Sunni from Indonesia have been reported to visit the mosque and pray at it, and the mosque hosts Friday prayers which have been reported to be attended by Muslim embassy staff from various countries regardless of sect.[1]
Though other Islamic-majority nations, including Egypt, Libya and Pakistan, maintain embassies in North Korea, none of these embassies are known to have mosques on their premises. This lack of mosques in North Korea is attributed to the state's religious policies, and it distinguishes North Korea as the only country with a Shia mosque and no Sunni mosques, apart from Armenia, which has the Blue Mosque in Yerevan.[2]
