Thus, this paper presents an exemplary post-occupancy evaluation of mosque facilities in Saudi Arabia as a religious built environment. Therefore, this research was motivated by the need to identify and purpose an exemplary systematic process upon the conduct of post-occupancy evaluation, owing to the fundamental need for satisfactory conditions that need to be met by mosque facilities. Mosques could endure critical defects and inadequate performance, with gaps in knowledge, of appraisal tools for their overall performance assessment. The built environment in these facilities should meet certain technical, functional, and behavioral requirements for worshipers. Mosques are religious and cultural facilities that are used as a place of worship, social gatherings, and religious events by Islamic communities.
