description Mosque of the Companions Overview
The Mosque of the Companions is a mosque in Massawa, Eritrea, associated by local tradition with the Muslim companions who travelled to Abyssinia during the early persecution of Islam.

Its historical importance therefore rests on its connection with the first spread of Islam in the region, while the precise dating of the surviving structure is not certain.
