text: The Umm al-Qura Mosque, also known as the Umm al-Ma'arik Mosque, is a mosque located in Baghdad, Iraq. It was the city's largest place of worship for Sunni Muslims, but it has also become the location of a Shi'a hawza and a place of refuge for many fleeing the terrorists' depredations in the Anbar Province. It was designed to commemorate former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's self-proclaimed victory in the Gulf War (1990–1991) and was intended to serve as a personal tribute to Saddam himself. I
