The Zagreb Mosque, located in the city of Zagreb, is the largest mosque in Croatia.[citation needed] The Islamic Secondary School "Dr. Ahmed Smajlović" and a cultural centre operate within the mosque. The construction began in 1981[3] and finished in 1987.

Sultan bin Muhammad Al-Qasimi, the Emir of Sharjah, donated US$2.5 million for the construction of the mosque. In 1983, he visited the Islamic community in Zagreb.[3]
