Wrong place for this picture – http://www.flickr.com/photos/sandmania/542213475/
It is in Kuala Lumpur,Malaysia.
Brilliant design (tiny detail is so awesome). Thanks for sharing :)
I don’t know what it is, but I don’t like the look of the buildings with a modern twist like ‘Faisal Mosque – Pakistan’.
actually its not your fault u guys have problem with all the Muslim community…! and also if you don’t know about that better u keep quite!
It seems to me that he was not commenting on the Muslim community at all, just the architectural look of a few of the mosques pictured above. We could just as easily be examining a collection of pictures of Christian churches or palaces or Soviet monuments and say that we didn’t like some of them as much as the others. Please don’t be overly sensitive when no insult was intended.
I agree
I disagree.
I Agree, Dutch designer said about the muslim community at all, just the architectural look.
It’s guy like you, Hamza, that get us all this negative clichés and ideas about Muslims!
“Dutch Designer” never said anything about the muslim community, he just said that he didn’t like the architectural look of one of the mosques, that’s all!
Mary there is a well known saying that you should think before you speak before fanatically jumping down peoples throats with half baked facts. You need to knock on the door of Secular Western Governments who top the charts by gazillion miles when it comes to unleashing organized violence with weapons of mass destruction on innocent civilians for political ends, before and after 9/11 – not religion (one example would suffice, who created the Arab/Israeli conflict, it was Secular British politicians for political ends, need I mention that occupied Palestine has a Secular form of government not Jewish). But I guess thinking is an oddity for some people especially those who are part of twitter generation who are use to expressing themselves in a handful of words and absorb without questioning everything that is thrown at them from biased news media. Having said that that is not true of everyone as there are many Westerners who are now openly questioning whether or not their own governments were complicit in 9/11, 7/7, etc…
Hamza – I think Dutch Designer was only stating his architectural preference and nothing to do with Muslims or Islam from the wording of his statement.
Well every person has their own taste, I personally really love Faisal Masjid Building, Islamabad ,Pakistan.
I been to that building if you go and look at the building then you will realise how beautiful it is, its not just outside inside and from far away (mountains view) its a piece of beauty.
I think you are judging the book from its cover !
the person who designed this building, designer even won the price as well.
I agree with You, There is some significance behind the Doom & Minarets. the latest architects are showing there creativity in wrong place.The traditional mosque design are the best.
Very good collection. But hoped to see some mosque from Bangladesh too. Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, has many many mosque. Dhaka is known as ‘City of Mosque’ for this reason. Thanks for the nice collection.
keep quiet you bengali
That is very bad Aamir, Islam doesn’t allow any sort of discrimination,
Well Its Shame on us Muslim who don’t have unity!
You shouldn’t see who is bagali or Pakistani or Indian, All Muslim are brother /sister.
I am sure you meant as joke but try to Love every Muslim nation, without taking piss on others, every person makes difference.
Salaam
Khan
I agree with Fas Khan, aamir stop being so arrogant, very rude and unnecessary and will get you nowhere in life.
How about Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem? It’s one of the most beautiful mosques in the world!
I was just about to ask the same question :)
I am so sad..
:) me 6
that is dome of rock and it is not Masjid al-aqsa
Dome of the Rock is not Al-Aqsa Mosque. Both are actually very near each-other and every time Al-Aqsa Mosque is mentioned in the media they keep showing Dome of the Rock and that is why, I think, even Muslims confuse it these days.
Thanks for this breathtaking collection Noupe!
7 !!
This is a picture of Dome of Rock which is in front of Masjid Al Aqsa,
