Bani is the capital of Bani Department in Séno Province in northern Burkina Faso. It had a population of 5 771 in 2008.[1] Bani is known for its seven mosques made of clay[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and is situated between Kaya, Burkina Faso and Dori, Burkina Faso.
Bani's seven mosques were built in 1978 under the leadership of the Prophet Mohamed el-Hajj. They consist of six mosques built atop a hill, surrounding the grand mosque in the centre of town. Since then, these religious buildings have suffered from lack of maintenance, giving them an older, weathered appearance.
