The Gurin Central Mosque (Fula: ‮𞤔𞤵𞤤𞤵𞤪𞤣𞤫 𞤔𞤵𞤲'𞤦𞤢𞤪𞤫 𞤘𞤵𞤪𞤭𞤲, romanized: Julurde Jumbare Gurin, Hausa: Masallacin Kara) is a 19th-century mosque that has served the people of Gurin for over 200 years. In addition to the five daily prayers, the Gurin mosque served as a regular venue for the weekly Friday prayers. It also functioned as a tribunal, a gathering place for official communications, and as a space for organizing and preparing for the Jihad that took place in Fombina beginning in 1809.[1] It was originally built by Modibbo Hamman in 1806 and has gone through numerous renovations and reconstructions. The mosque was built using corn-stalks, hence the name Masallacin Kara (the corn-stalk mosque in Hausa). It was entirely rebuilt using modern materials in 2003 by the late Lamido Aliyu Musdafa.[2]
