About: Shafei Mosque
Shafei Jameh Mosque is the mosque for Sunni people in Kermanshah and is located on the order of Kermanshah Bazaar (Tarikeh Bazaar) and was established in 1324. This mosque leads to Javanshir Square on one side and Tarikeh Bazaar on the other side. The mosque was established in a neighborhood that was previously a shrine for pilgrimers and the place was bought by Sunni benefactors led by late Haj Mullah Seyyed Hossein Masoudi. Today prayers are held only in the new building of the mosque which is near the old building and is built in the style of Turkish mosques. Mullah Mohammad Rabei was the Prayer’s Imam in this mosque who was killed in serial killings.
Taking photos from the courtyard and inside the mosque is forbidden.
