Baiturrahim Mosque () is a mosque located in Meuraksa sub-district of Ulee Lheue, Banda Aceh, Aceh, Indonesia. As a legacy of the sultan of Aceh in the 17th century, it is one of the historical mosques in Indonesia. Previously, the mosque was named Jami Ulee Lheu Mosque. In 1873, when the Baiturrahman Grand Mosque was burned by the Dutch, all the worshipers held a Friday prayer at Ulee Lheue. Since then the name of the mosque became Baiturrahim Mosque.Babak-Disaster-and-Trace-Aceh -The Mass of Baiturrahim Ulee Lheue Mosque, Two Rains of Disaster and the Trace of Aceh of Silam.
