55 Stunning Photographs of Mosques

Mosque or Masjid as it is called in Arabic, is a holy place place for Muslims where prayers are offered. The very first mosque in the world is located in Madina, a town in Saudi Arabia where Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi is located. Like everything else in human history, construction of mosques has evolved over the years too. The first mosque was built with mud and twigs but today, some mosques are architecture marvels.

We are showcasing the best photographs of Mosques all around the world. Most of them are architecture marvels and the rest are plain awesome photographs.

22 is a mosque. It used to be a cathedral, but was converted by the conquering Muslim army. I love the variety in architecture, and the use of light is extraordinary in some of these. Thank you ever so for sharing these!

@Levent, thanks for the comment. I have fixed the name and photographer’s name.
LEVENT / November 8, 2010

There is no Thorpe Mosque actually. It is Blue Mosque in İstanbul and the photo is by Kenn Thorpe.

They might be stunning mosques but the vast majority are just average photos. Is OK, but not “stunning.”
Jeelani / November 1, 2010

Awesome..
Setelkol / November 1, 2010

The photographs are perfection my friend, but pic no. 22 is not a mosque!! It has drawings on the ceiling and couches and even the very layout can NEVER make it a mosque, although i have to admit it is a beautifully decorated hall.
Ilyas Kazi / November 1, 2010

Jazak Allah! Very lovely and beautiful outlooks…
