The Mosque of the Jinn is a Sunni mosque in Mecca. Arabic sources place it in the Ghazza district, roughly 1.4 km from the Masjid al-Haram, while English sources describe it as lying near Jannat al-Mu'alla. It is also called Masjid Biy'at (Mosque of Allegiance) and Masjid al-Haras (Mosque of Guards), the latter name reflecting the fact that the city's guards patrolled as far as this point. According to tradition, a group of jinn gathered here one night to hear Muhammad recite part of the Quran. He is said to have met their leaders at the site afterwards and accepted their conversion to Islam and their oath of allegiance. The episode is referred to in the Quranic chapter al-Jinn. The mosque is regarded as one of the oldest in Mecca and a significant place of visit in the city.

The Mosque of the Jinn (Arabic: مسجد الجنّ, romanized: Masjid al-Jinn) is a Sunni Islam mosque, located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, near Jannat al-Mu'alla. It is also known as the Mosque of Allegiance (Arabic: مسجد بِيعات, romanized: Masjid Biy‘āt) and the Mosque of Guards (Arabic: مسجد الحرس, romanized: Masjid al-Ḥaras) because the city's guards would patrol up to that point.
The mosque is built at the place where a group of jinn are said to have gathered one night to hear the recitation of a portion of the Quran by Muhammad. Muhammad later met there with these jinn's leaders and accepted their embrace of Islam and their bay'ah (oath of allegiance) to him. The incident is mentioned in chapter al-Jinn of the Quran.
The mosque is considered one of the oldest in Mecca and is one of the most important mosques visited in the city.
