A mosque is a building where Muslims go to worship. A Muslim house of worship. Islamic public place of prayer. The masjid jmi, or "congregational mosque," is the centre of community worship and the site of Friday prayer services. Though the mosque originally a sacred plot of ground has been influenced by local architectural styles, the building has remained essentially an open space, usually roofed, with a minaret sometimes attached. Statues and pictures are not permitted as decoration. The minbar, a seat at the top of steps placed at the right of the mihrab, is used by the preacher (khab) as a pulpit. Occasionally there is also a maqrah, a box or wooden screen originally used to shield a worshiping ruler from assassins. The minaret, originally any elevated place but now usually a tower, is used by the muezzin (crier) to proclaim the call to worship five times each day. During prayer, Muslims orient themselves toward the qiblah wall, which is invariably oriented toward the Kabah in Mecca. The mosque has traditionally been the centre of social, political, and educational life in Islamic societies. Mosque of Omar Great Mosque of Esfahan Ibn tulun Mosque Prophet's Mosque
Persian Masjed-e Jmi Complex of buildings, chiefly of the Seljq period (see Seljq dynasty), in Efahn, Iran. The mosque (completed 1130) has a central courtyard framed by four huge eyvns, or vaulted niches. It is renowned for its fine brickwork, vaulting, and two domed sanctuaries. The brick dome of the main sanctuary ( 1070-75) is supported by heavy piers. The smaller domed chamber (1088) is known for its beauty of proportion; its dome, resting on a series of arches, is a structural masterpiece. The dome and the four-eyvn plan became standard for Seljq mosques
Huge, majestic red-brick mosque in Cairo. It was built (876-879) by Amad ibn ln (835-884), the Muslim governor of Egypt and Syria. The mosque's crenellated walls have merlons (see battlement) that are shaped and perforated in a decorative pattern, and its three courts are lined with arcades of broad arches and heavy pillars. The arches are decorated with elaborately carved stucco. The main space is divided by pillars into five long aisles originally ornamented with panels of carved wood. Classed as a historic monument in 1890, the mosque has since been completely restored
House of worship built on the site of Muhammad's house in Medina, considered one of the three holiest places of Islam. It was originally a simple brick structure surrounding an enclosed courtyard where people gathered to hear Muhammad. Muhammad later built roofed galleries to shelter his visitors, and in 628 a pulpit was added to raise him above the crowd. In 706 Caliph al-Wald I pulled down the original building and built a mosque on the site, which contains Muhammad's tomb. The mosque served as the model for later Islamic architecture
