"Mohammed Farsi Mosque, sometimes referred to as Rewais Mosque, is yet another mosque in Jeddah designed by the Egyptian architect Abdel-Wahed El-Wakil. This one was completed in 1989 and is recognisable by its red ochre colour and three domes. The architect is said to have been inspired by Nubian and Mamluke architecture in his design. It is named, and likely funded by, the former mayor of Jeddah, Mohammed Farsi, who is credited with planning and beautifying Jeddah in the 1970s, and for preserving the old city from destruction. It is located in the Rewais area on the Southern Corniche Road, west of el-Balad (Old Jeddah) and just north of the Central Fish Market."
