Al-Sohoom Mosque (Arabic: مسجد السهوم) is an abandoned low-contour historic mosque currently under rehabilitation in the al-Yamamah neighborhood of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Covering an area of 49 square meters, the mosque approximately dates back to 18th or 19th century when it was situated in the town of Manfuhah. It is built on Najdi architecture using clay and stands on five natural stone pillars extracted from the Tuwaiq mountains. The Saudi authorities began taking steps to protect the mosque in 2020 by halting all excavation activities around the site.
