The Nizamiye Mosque, also known as Nizamiye Masjid, is a mosque that can be found in Midrand, City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality, South Africa. Despite only taking up a little under two-thirds of an acre of the 10 hectares of land, it is frequently claimed to be the largest mosque in the Southern Hemisphere. [2] Originally created in Turkey, the mosque's blueprints were modified by a South African architect to meet local building codes. The project started in October 2009 and was finished in 2012. 

The mosque's construction project started in October 2009 and was finished in 2012. The Ottoman Selimiye Mosque from the 16th century served as the inspiration for the mosque's fundamental design. Mimar Sinan created this mosque, which is situated in Edirne, Turkey. The Selimiye Mosque was scaled down by 80% compared to the Nizamiye Masjid. A South African architect modified Turkish architectural ideas for the mosque to meet South African building codes. The mosque's main dome is 48 tons of lead and measures 31 meters (102 feet) high by 24 meters (79 feet) wide. 21 smaller domes and 4 additional half-domes are present. The mosque's interior features calligraphy on the ceiling and genuine Turkish ceramics on the walls. Turkish art is reflected in the specially manufactured carpet below and is patterned on the dome. There are four 55 m (180 ft) tall minarets with staircases leading to three platforms. There are 232 windows made of stained glass. The major prayer hall for men and the prayer gallery for ladies each have capacity for 6,000 persons every service. Within one of the courtyards, there are five wudhu facilities. The mosque is illuminated in glowing green and purple at night on special occasions.

In addition to the mosque, the Nizamiye Complex houses other institutions and functions as a community center thanks to its various halls and services.
