The Central Mosque of Lisbon was designed by António Maria Braga and João Paulo Conceição. The article names no client. Permission was requested in 1966 and not granted until 1978, and the text says construction took seven years. The infobox gives completion in 1985, which matches the text's inauguration year.
The article calls the style a mix of traditional Islamic architecture and local Portuguese style. It names no materials or dimensions. The building has two domes and four minarets, and capacity is 1,000 worshippers in the infobox and more than 1,000 in the text.
The article links the long wait for permission to the 1973 oil crisis. It describes the largest mosque in Portugal, with a main prayer hall, reception halls, a cultural center and an auditorium, used for sermons, classes and social activities. The article gives no hours.
