The Suleiman Mosque, located in Marib, is a significant historical site facing the old Ma’rib Governorate Center. Built using reused ancient stones, its structure showcases the beauty of traditional craftsmanship. The mosque features a grand roof supported by 52 elegant columns, most of which are eight-sided polygonal designs.

Though commonly associated with the Prophet Solomon among local traditions, archaeological findings reveal that this mosque likely served as one of the temples of the Kingdom of Sheba. Despite losing much of its original roof and some other features over time, the mosque remains an important cultural landmark.

This Sunni mosque offers separate prayer spaces for women and facilities for ablution, ensuring it is welcoming for families and visitors. Its rich history and unique architecture make it a notable place to visit for those interested in the region's heritage.
