Islamic Architecture

A mosque is a place of worship for Muslims, serving as a center for religious activities and community gatherings. Typically, mosques feature a large prayer hall where worshippers gather for prayers, especially on Fridays, which is a special day for communal worship. They often have a minaret, a tall tower from which the call to prayer is announced, and may include decorative elements like domes, arches, and intricate patterns. Many mosques also provide spaces for learning, community events, and social activities, making them important cultural and religious hubs within Muslim communities.
