The largest mosque in Pakistan by capacity is the Badshahi Mosque located in Lahore, which can accommodate around 100,000 worshippers. It is a historic Mughal-era mosque and remains one of the largest mosques in the world by capacity, though it is no longer the third largest globally as newer mosques have surpassed it. The Grand Jamia Mosque in Lahore is larger by built-up area and capacity but is the third largest mosque in Pakistan and ranks lower globally. The Faisal Mosque in Islamabad is also large but smaller in capacity than Badshahi Mosque. Karachi and Rawalpindi do not have mosques larger than Badshahi Mosque.
