Hofuf, the largest city in the Al-Ahsa Oasis, is home to the historic Jawatha Mosque, one of the earliest mosques built outside the Hejaz region during the Prophet's lifetime. The city features traditional Islamic architecture with mud-brick buildings and historic quarters that reflect centuries of Islamic heritage. As a major center in the Eastern Province, Hofuf maintains strong Islamic traditions and serves as an important hub for religious scholarship and cultural preservation.
