The Nur Al-Din Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع نُور ٱلدِّين, romanized: Jāmiʿ Nūr ad-Dīn, transliteration: Jami Nur al-Din) is a Zengid-era mosque in Hama, Syria. It was founded by Nur al-Din in 1163-64 CE. It also contained a historic minbar from the same date, which is now held at the local Hama Museum.
The mosque was profoundly damaged in the 1982 shelling of the city and subsequently restored to its current state.
