A Japanese company has developed a Mobile Mosque to provide accessible prayer spaces for Muslims in areas lacking permanent religious infrastructure.

Created by Yasu Project Co., Ltd., the Mobile Mosque is built on the platform of a large truck and is designed to serve communities affected by conflict, natural disasters, or limited access to mosques.

The mobile unit was recently showcased near Tokyo Tower, where visitors performed prayers after using the onboard ablution facilities, Arab News reported. The structure spans 48 square meters and can accommodate up to 50 worshippers, offering both indoor prayer space and outdoor washing stations.

Yasu Project CEO Inoue Yasuharu explained that the Mobile Mosque provides a practical, temporary solution where permanent facilities are unavailable. It has already been deployed in both domestic and international settings.

The initiative has received praise from Arab and Muslim diplomats in Tokyo, who highlighted its potential to serve Muslim communities globally.

To support ongoing production and operation, the company has launched the Mobile Mosque Peace Contribution Project, a fundraising initiative that seeks partnerships with businesses connected to the Islamic world. A portion of participating companies’ profits will be directed toward the project.

Yasu Project also plans to consult with authorities about exporting the Mobile Mosque to West Asia, aiming to expand its reach and impact.
